Robert Griffin III Meets With Reps From Seven Sports Agencies

Heisman Trophy-winning QB Robert Griffin III was meeting with the representatives of seven different sports agencies at Baylor Univ. over the weekend, in the event he declares for this year's NFL Draft. Griffin met with or was scheduled to meet with reps from Athletes First, CAA Sports, Domann & Pittman, Lagardere Unlimited, Maximum Sports Management, Rosenhaus Sports, and Select Sports Group, multiple sources said. Officials from those agencies either would not comment or did not return inquiries for comment. Griffin's agent interview process was overseen by Baylor compliance officers to ensure that Griffin does not jeopardize his college eligibility in the event he decides to return to school.

Sources said the Griffin family had originally planned to interview five agencies, but expanded it to seven. Griffin's parents interviewed an even larger group of agencies in December, but Griffin was not present at those interviews, sources said.
