Suspended NRL player Bronson Xerri has set himself a new sporting challenge while he serves out his four-year doping ban: he wants to try and make it in the NFL.
Xerri has taken small steps towards that goal, touching base with at least one player agent with connections in the sport. Pacific Sports Management – the company that set another former Sharks star, Valentine Holmes, on his way to the US to try his hand at American football – will need to play a key role in his attempt to make it. The boss of that company, Chris Orr, is aware of Xerri’s desire to try to make it in the US.
His ban covers sports that are signatories to the World Anti-Doping Authority, but
the NFL is not bound by the WADA code, meaning Xerri is free to try his hand at American football.
