Teddy Bridgewater is "strongly considering" signing with Jay-Z's Roc Nation Sports, according to Jason Cole of the National Football Post. Sources told Cole that Bridgewater has been in talks with the agency. An ESPN report Wednesday suggested that Bridgewater has already decided to enter the 2014 NFL Draft.

Bridgewater isn't the only top draft prospect considering Roc Nation. South Carolina defensive end Jadeveon Clowney has been linked to Jay-Z and co., as has UCLA quarterback Brett Hundley. Clowney announced he will be entering the draft as an underclassman following South Carolina's win over Wisconsin during the Capital One Bowl on Wednesday. Hundley is reportedly still undecided.

Roc Nation Sports has built up an impressive client list since its formation in early 2013. The agency represents New York Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano, who recently received a 10-year, $240 million contract as a free agent. New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith and New York Giants wide receiver Victor Cruz are also clients.
