Jalen Hurts has suddenly become the talk of the town. Despite the Eagles losing 38-35 to Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl, earlier this year, the performance by their rising star QB was enough to convince them of him being worthy of a massive payout. The Eagles recently signed Hurts to a 5-year $255 million extension, which made him the highest-paid player in NFL history. While Hurts’ performance makes him worthy enough of such a contract, a big chunk of credit goes to Nicole Lynn, the agent who has worked relentlessly for her client in the NFL. After helping Hurts bag the blockbuster contract in the league, $5 million worth Lynn is on her way to stardom with a lucrative offer to put her in the limelight.
Lynn signed up as Hurts’ agent as soon as his college career ended. And ever since, Lynn has been working to build the QB’s image with an all-women management team.

The achievement of Nicole Lynn is nothing short of a huge victory for women in a sport that is predominantly male-oriented. It is also a huge win for the black women’s community. When Lynn first started as an agent, people did not have a lot of faith in her making it in the NFL. But she has gone to prove haters wrong with her tremendous abilities and skills. After being the backbone of making Hurts the highest-paid player in the NFL, she is walking the road to television stardom with a TV series about her own life.
A recent tweet posted by Black Millionaires stated that Nicole Lynn is getting her own TV series which is being produced by rap sensation 50 Cent. The series will focus on her life and her journey to being who we recognize her as today.

Just like Hurts, Lynn is also from Houston and an Oklahoma Law Alumni. Apart from helping the Eagles QB bag the massive contract, she has also helped Hurts grow with various endorsements and sponsorships. Lynn has all-woman management that takes care of various marketing and communications aspects for the QB. The team includes Chantal Romain and Shakeemah Simmons- Winter in communications, Jenna Malphrus in endorsement management, and Rachel Everett in marketing.
While the 5 women will continue to help improve the rising QB’s stature in the league, for Lynn, having a TV series on her own life shows how far she has come from her days of doubts and criticisms as an agent, to become a super agent.
