By signing with Roc Nation, Fournette is following in the footsteps of another recent SEC star. Former Georgia RB Todd Gurley is also one of the agency’s clients.
Among the other NFL athletes represented by Roc Nation are Dez Bryant, Victor Cruz and Ndamukong Suh.
Fournette announced last week that he would skip LSU’s bowl game against Louisville in order to focus on getting healthy before the draft.
