Boston College offensive tackle John Wetzel has made his decision on representation, and has given his blessing to football agent Tom Condon of Creative Artists Agency (CAA) Football. That Condon signed a Boston College player is not at all surprising. In 2012, the only player selected from Boston College was inside linebacker Luke Kuechly. He […]

In the beginning of June, I reported that New York Giants defensive end Osi Umenyiora parted ways with his agent Tony Agnone of Eastern Athletic Services.

Tom Condon, who is an agent in the football division at Creative Artists Agency (CAA), has filed a lawsuit in federal court against former client, Ryan Pickett.

Rick Horrow, also known as “The Sports Professor”, recently interviewed Tom Condon for Fox Sports. He asked Condon if he thought that the agent business regulates itself adequately.
