CHAPTER SEVENTEEN
Trey took a three-step drop, cocked his arm, and launched the football through the uprights. His teammates lined up on the sidelines of the practice field whooped and hollered with delight. At least those who had the wisdom not to take Kesslerâs wager did. Every year, the wide receiver talked his teammates into betting him that Trey couldnât throw a football seventy-five yards over the goal post in three attempts or less. And every year, Trey accomplished it on the first try.
âOn behalf of the homeless pets of Milwaukee, thank you, gentlemen,â Kessler said as he collected his winnings in the locker room thirty minutes later.
Grunting, Fletcher took his seat in front of the locker next to Treyâs. âOne of these days youâre gonna miss and what will Kesslerâs mutts do then, eh?â The kicker tugged off his cleats.
âHe wonât miss,â Kessler sat on Treyâs other side counting his money. âHeâs a machine, remember?â
âI canât believe that article is still making the rounds,â Trey groused. âSurely someone else has done something newsworthyâor stupidâthis summer?â
âIf youâd let me sue the woman, it would already be out of the news cycle.â
Trey swore beneath his breath. He slowly turned to find Collin strolling through the locker room as if he owned the place.
Fletcherâs laugh lacked any humor. âIf heâd let you sue her, the story would still be front page news now and for months to come. âLeast said, soonest mendedâ according to my ma.â
Trey gestured at the kicker. âWhat he said. What are you doing here, Collin?â
Except Trey could guess the reason his agentâs son had dragged his ass from the parties in the Hamptons on a late August evening. The Growlers were playing a nationally televised preseason game against the league champion Baltimore Blaze tonight. With some strategic positioning on the sidelines, Collin would likely make it onto everyoneâs screens, looking like heâs schmoozing with pro football players. It was a surefire gimmick to give him more cred with the college boys Martyâs firm was angling to sign this year.
âIâm here to watch our number one client play football,â Collin replied.
âThis really is your first rodeo,â Fletcher quipped. âItâs our final game of the pre-season. Van Horn isnât even dressing for the game.â
Collin flashed a coy grin. âWell, isnât that a shame? I guess weâll have more time to catch up on the sideline, then.â
Bingo.
âIs your little brother coming tonight?â Collin went to slap Kessler on the shoulder, but the receiver abruptly stood before his hand made contact.
âHeâll be around,â Kessler replied.
âCool. I canât believe he isnât repped yet. Iâd really appreciate it if youâd hook me up with an introduction. Iâd love to tell him what the Slater Agency can do for him.â
Collin was ballsy, Trey had to give him that. Luke and Brodyâs father was an NFL legend who was still represented by the agent heâd signed with before heâd been drafted. Luke, being the illegitimate son, had to make his way in the league without the support of his superstar dad.
