Dexter Lawrence joins Agent with his eyes set on content creation
A current defensive tackle for the New York Giants, the two-time Pro Bowler and second-team All-Pro is a standout talent in the NFL. Off the field, Lawrence is a gamer and Twitch streamer when he's not pressuring the opposing team's quarterback. With 1.5K followers to his credit, Lawrence primarily streams Call of Duty with the occasional NBA gameplay mixed in. Under the Agent organization, the NFL star hopes to grow the brand and enjoy the ride.
"Joining Agent is a dream come true," Lawrence said. "I play various games, and I've always been competitive. To be a part of this esports team and growing with it competitively is going to make gaming much more fun and exciting! I look forward to being a part of such a dynamic and innovative organization."
At just 26 years old, Lawrence adds himself to the growing list of athletes looking to broaden their horizons beyond their sport of choice. Although professional football remains his full-time career, content creation allows him to garner a more significant following while doing something they enjoy.
What's next for Agent?
The addition of Dexter Lawrence expands Agent's position in the unpredictable esports landscape. Various athletes have invested in esports, which could be the start of something more significant for the organization.
As it stands, Agent boasts one of the top competitive Fortnite rosters, with frequent FNCS finalists Peterbot, Bucke, Reet, and Cented. These four players have qualified for the upcoming FNCS Major 1 Grand Finals, where they will compete for millions in prize money.
Agent also doubles as a lifestyle brand, offering a selection of clothing on its storefront. Things are trending up, and with an NFL star on board, the sky's the limit for Agent.
