Patrick Whitesell, After Cashing Out of Endeavor, Launches WIN Sports Comprising WME’s NFL Talent-Representation Business
Former WME and Endeavor exec Patrick Whitesell launched WIN Sports Group, comprising the NFL talent representation business of WME.
The new firm’s clients include Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson and San Francisco 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa. Last year, Silver Lake co-CEO Egon Durban bought a stake in the Las Vegas Raiders; under league rules, an NFL team owner cannot have business ties to an entity that represents players. However, WME is still allowed and expected to continue representing retired NFL players and coaches (including Peyton Manning, Tom Brady and Shannon Sharpe) for broadcast and content opportunities.
