Tom Brady's Agent Wants Clemson QB Trevor Lawrence to Play in New Professional League

Tom Brady's agent, Don Yee, wants Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence to revolutionize his new professional football league.

During a radio interview with 104.5 "The Zone" on Thursday, Yee said that he wants Lawrence to be the Pacific Pro Football League's "Joe Namath." Yee is one of the founders of the league.

Namath, a former quarterback for the Crimson Tide, left Alabama early after being taken as the No. 1 overall pick in 1964 by the New York Jets of the new American Football League. Namath's decision paved the way for other players and helped the emerging AFL grow.
