Report: Todd Gurley signs with Jay Z's Roc Nation agency
Georgia running back Todd Gurley has signed with Jay Z's Roc Nation agency, ESPN's Darren Rovell reports.
Gurley, 20, tore the ACL in his left knee in November against Auburn and missed the rest of the season. It was his first game back since serving a four-game suspension for accepting money for autographs. Coach Mark Richt announced in December that Gurley would enter the NFL draft.
Gurley was an early favorite for the Heisman Trophy as he was second in all-purpose yards when he was suspended. In six games this season, Gurley rushed for 911 yards and nine touchdowns while also catching 16 passes for 117 yards.

Jay Z sold his shares in the NBA's Brooklyn Nets in 2013 to become a sports agent.
