Join me, Brian Murphy, and AJ Stevens, as we welcome the legendary Todd France to the Athletes First Family Podcast! In this episode, we uncover Todd's incredible journey from his Chicago upbringing to becoming a Forbes-ranked super agent. Get ready for some unbelievable stories and insights! Todd has represented 83 Pro Bowlers, with multiple Pro Bowlers every year since 2011.

He’s negotiated record-breaking contracts, making players like Aaron Donald and Dak Prescott the highest-paid offensive and defensive players simultaneously. He’s also achieved the highest-paid status for players at every position—except kicker, punter, and long snapper (but he’s working on it!). Since 2018, Todd has consistently ranked #1 or #2 on Forbes’ list of top sports agents. #nfl #dakprescott #aarondonald
