The Signature Tacos at Maverick's

Based in the Detroit, Michigan, area, Brian Fettner is a longtime real estate investor who guides BT Foods and owns and operates a pair of Maverick’s locations. Brian Fettner named the restaurant after his pet Jack Russell, and he contributes a percentage of each sale to rescue organizations in the area.

Among the popular Maverick’s menu items are steaks, pizzas, and fish and chips, as well as two types of taco entrees. Made with a choice of beef barbacoa, crispy chicken, or beer-battered shrimp, the Mav Tacos are lightly grilled and filled generously with fresh diced tomato, cilantro, shredded lettuce, spicy lime aioli, and queso fresco.

Queso fresco is a Mexican cheese formed in a round and traditionally made from cow’s and goat’s milk. With a mild and refreshing taste, it is creamy rather than rich, and has a distinctive salty-sour kick that pairs well with many dishes.

For those seeking flavorful seafood, the Blackened Mahi-Mahi Tacos are served with a similar range of condiments, minus the queso fresco and with an added sweet mango pico de gallo.

What You Need to Know About Becoming an NFL Agent

A resident of Boca Raton, Florida, Brian Fettner holds an MBA from the University of Miami and is the owner of BT Foods. Brian Fettner is also the owner of Elevate Football, a company that recruits players for the NFL. In this capacity, he serves an agent for the National Football League (NFL).

To become an agent for the NFL, you must have an undergraduate degree and master's or law degree from a university or accredited college. Prospective agents must pass a background investigation, attend a 2-day seminar in Washington, D.C., and successfully pass a proctored exam with a score of at least 70 on the exam scale or higher.

The exam written by prospective NFL agents covers topics including National Football League Players Association (NFLPA) regulations regarding contract advisors, NFL player benefits, salary cap, performance-enhancing substances and substance abuse, and other subjects related to representing players. Those who pass the exam cannot recruit or represent players until they secure liability insurance and pay an annual fee. To maintain certification, agents must comply with all required regulations set forth by the NFLPA.

Brian Fettner is a real estate investor and the owner of BT Foods in Florida. He also has been a successful NFL agent for more than seven years. Through his agency, Elevate Football, Brian Fettner manages numerous pro players and over $100 million in contracts.

Finding the right agent can be a challenge for a young player, and finding an agent who prioritizes the player’s interests is even more difficult. Here are a few questions to start the conversation when talking with an agent:

1. Tell me about players you’ve represented who played for three or fewer years. What happened to them?

A good agent is looking ahead to life after football, and if many of his former players are struggling, that’s not a good sign.

2. How many players are you representing now, and how do you handle the workload?

The more players an agent represents, the less time he or she will have to dedicate to each player. Players who want marquee-name agents should expect less accessibility.

3. Will it be a problem that I already have an advisory team?

It’s not unusual for players to have a separate team of financial, real estate, and tax advisors.

4. What if I’m not drafted?

Not getting drafted is never the desired outcome, but it’s always a possibility. A plan should be in place in case it happens.
