The Firm
727 is not a startup and not a conglomerate. It is a firm built by people who understand what athletes need and refuse to settle for anything less.
Canton, Ohio
Darryl Peterson II built this firm around a simple question: what would it look like if someone built an agency for elite athletes the way a father builds something for his son?
Not transactional. Not institutional. Built on loyalty, built for longevity, and built in Canton, Ohio. Legacy Starts at Home.
