Leigh Steinberg is considered the first Super Agent in sports and he once had an A-list of clients that was the envy of his industry. But just like the movie Jerry McGuire (which he consulted on), Steinberg lost it all and had to battle back, writing his own true life redemption story. Steinberg shares the stories of the early work to build his agency, and the lasting impression he’s leaving on professional sports and the players he represents.
