Wicklow goalkeeper Mark Jackson has reportedly signed with well-known American Football kicking agent Rob Roche after taking part in a recent NFL Combine in Indianapolis.
US-based Irish-based journalist Conor Mangan stated on X that Jackson has linked up with Roche, who also represents Justin Tucker who kicked the longest field goal in NFL history in September 2021.
Fellow GAA goalkeepers Rory Beggan and Charlie Smyth had already signed with Paul Sheehy at Pro Star Sports in anticipation of being offered NFL contracts.
