It seems that being a prominent figure in WWE and a well-known personality on ESPN isn’t quite enough for Pat McAfee.
The former Colts punter, who has achieved fame beyond football, has engaged high-profile agent Ari Emanuel to assist him in securing roles in television and film. As reported by Bloomberg.
The report stated that Emanuel, who represents talents like Seth MacFarlane and Larry David, aims to transform former NFL players into “the next Sylvester Stallone.”

According to Bloomberg, Emanuel has already secured McAfee a part in the next season of Stallone’s “Tulsa King.” Additionally, Emanuel has pitched him for a role in Peter Berg’s forthcoming film “The Mosquito Bowl.”
McAfee and Emanuel’s connection runs through WWE, where Emanuel’s TKO Group is the owner.
McAfee played for the Colts from 2009 until 2016 and has since become a beloved figure in sports commentary.
His “Pat McAfee Show” ranks among the top sports programs globally, and his analysis on “College Gameday” receives significant acclaim.
It appears he might be gearing up for a Hollywood takeover next, and with his track record, it wouldn’t be surprising if he builds a solid resume in that arena soon.
