This is what we can give and this is what the other stuff is the money is going to be spent on.” In January 2020, we already got fifteen events. I started Versatile NYC and we keep everybody on the budget so they see the contract. He says, “It sounds good,” but he’s not making any money. It is the same thing with musicians, “Sign this deal for six years for $1 million.” He has no money so he signs it. This is how much they’re paying.” You have no clue what the budget is. They have agents like, “I need you to be here at this time. I founded Versatile NYC because athletes and models are the same way. You need to go back home and go to sleep and perform. You’re completely blind because you’ve got to play football. You go and do a signing for a company, but you don’t know what the budget is. Nothing else but play football, then when you get something off the field, your agent gets you one thing. It helps them broaden their platform because I feel like as an athlete, you play football and that’s all you do. Versatile NYC is a PR and marketing company, but at the same time, it helps athletes, musicians, and models. What are you working on? I know you have this Versatile NYC. I’m excited to have a conversation to pick your brain and figure out what you’ve been working on. A lot of the guests that I’ve had on have been founders of companies, artists, videographers, people that I can learn from. That’s what this show is about and being more than a football player, but also this journey that we’re on in life, generally speaking. That being said, there is something to be said about authenticity and working to find your true self or work towards your true self and shedding any identity that might be placed upon you. We will have a real conversation.” He knows everything and 100% genuine too. I was telling these guys, “Do you want to know the coolest guy I know?” I think you probably are the coolest guy in the locker room. ![]() That’s something that I pride myself on is doing everything for the team. I was talking to David and I said, “Your brother was coming.” He was like, “Buster? You’ve got to have at least a plus 5 to plus 10 with the entourage.” We’ve been talking about this for a while. Listen to the podcast here: Becoming More Than An Athlete With Buster Skrine Josh and Buster discuss life after the NFL and how to focus on the “Now what?” In addition to Versatile NYC, Skrine founded SkrineWay, an organization dedicated to helping children and single mothers in New York and New Jersey. ![]() Versatile NYC is a company focused on helping these individuals broaden their platform by linking them with brands that share the same mission. Who are you once the label of professional football player wears off? What can you do off the field to become something more than an athlete?
