An advisor to Dez Bryant said agent Drew Rosenhaus offered him cash and a trip to Miami in an attempt to get the former Oklahoma State wide receiver to sign with him, according to Yahoo! Sports, David Wells, a longtime friend and advisor of the Dallas Cowboys receiver, showed Yahoo! text messages sent from a phone number belonging to Rosenhaus from late December 2009 to January 2010. Wells said he’s bringing this to light because he’s fed up with the system that “takes advantages of athletes, particularly African-American athletes.†Among the texts that Wells showed Yahoo! Sports: “Also will have 10K for you to give to your community center,†Rosenhaus wrote to Wells in reference to a donation he would make. “Dnt mean to put pressure but we want this bad ! Were ready to put u on a private jet and get this done.. Miami’s callllinnnnnggggg!!!†When questioned by Yahoo! Sports, Rosenhaus gave “no comment†answers to 11 questions about Bryant and Wells. Bryant signed with agent Eugene Parker and not Rosenhaus, but later was hired by Bryant after firing Parker in December 2011, according to the report, but that relationship didn’t last long as Bryant fired Rosenhaus earlier this month. According to the Yahoo! report, it’s unclear if Rosenhaus could be penalized for the content in the text messages to Wells. Source: Sporting News
This is a molehill alongside the mountain range of agent misconduct. Crap is dirty and this isn't even close to as bad as it gets.
This is really something of a "new" story?!? Well when Godell is done getting pwned by the Saints, maybe he can move onto the "crooked" agents. The only agent to never offer cash or a trip or a car or a house for mama was Daunte Culpepper...
