Drew "Druski" Desbordes is one of the most popular internet stars in the game, with brand deals, movie appearances, and millions of loyal followers. Now, he's taking over the world of sports through his agency "4Lifers" and he's already landed a big fish.
According to Bleacher Report, Desbordes has signed top NFL Draft prospect Princely Umanmielen. Umanmielen, one of the country's top defensive backs, has been named to the Chuck Bednarik and Lombardi Award watch lists this season. He has accumulated 39 tackles, 4.5 sacks, and two forced fumbles this season while playing for the University of Florida Gators.
Desbordes is thrilled to sign a talent like Umanmielen, as it is a huge win for a young, Black-owned sports agency and is a testament to his business acumen. "Launching 4Lifers Sports Agency allows me to combine my two passions—sports and entertainment," he said. "Our team is dedicated to providing athletes with the resources, support, and marketing opportunities they need to succeed on and off the field. We are thrilled to have the Florida Gators' star Princely Umanmielen join our family."
The 28-year-old Georgia native has already had a few successes in the sports world, as he is co-owner of the Fan Controlled Football team Shoulda Been Stars.
Druski is no stranger to the entertainment world, either. He recently starred alongside singer Chloë Bailey in Peacock's Praise This and was featured in the LeBron James-produced House Party remake. He has also partnered with a variety of brands like 2K Sports, Amazon, American Express, Fanatics, Inc., EA Sports, Meta, Mountain Dew, NBA, Pepsi, PrizePicks, QuikTrip, Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers, and Spotify.
In the hip-hop world, Desbordes has won over many artists who have tapped the funnyman to bring laughs to their tours. He has opened for J. Cole, 21 Savage, Drake, Lil Baby, and Jack Harlow. With a career that continues to skyrocket, it will be interesting to see what Druski does next.
