Pat Capra

Co-Founder / NFL Agent

An industry veteran of 20+ years, Pat took the road less traveled, launching his business at 25 years old with a belief that he could build a sports agency that didn’t compromise values for dollars. After developing relationships with players while working for the NY Giants, he recognized there was a gap between promises made to players and promises kept by agents. Players weren’t being serviced holistically.

“Our role as an agent is to help our clients chase their Personal Legend. That includes maximizing every area of their life, on and off the field.”

Pat serves on the board of the REED Autism Services, The Hurley Family Foundation and is Director of the McCourty Twins Tackle Sickle Cell Campaign and Anthony Fasano Foundation. Pat is married with three kids and enjoys coaching his kids sports teams.
