All sources out there say his degree was in African-American and African

Studies. I believe he might have a Minor in Financial Planning, but he omits his major from his LinkedIn profile. Anyways, good for him going back to school. My point stands, what is the job market for some of the degrees out there that college players are being shepherded into? In his case the degree wouldn't have made a difference, between his NFL contract, whatever the bagman gave him at OSU and his contacts he is doing well apparently managing an NIL agency.
