Leading HR technology company Nexxt announced today that it is teaming up with the National Football League Players Association (NFLPA), the labor union representing NFL players, to launch an exclusive online job portal for NFLPA members.
NFLPA Jobs powered by Nexxt is an online platform built to connect the union’s player members with meaningful career opportunities.
When it’s time for players to transition from the football field to new professional arenas, Nexxt stands committed to supporting their success and career aspirations. Dedicated to helping players achieve their career goals beyond football, Nexxt offers resources and guidance designed to empower members as they pursue new opportunities and build rewarding futures off the field.
“I’ve long been a strong advocate for encouraging NFL players to explore career paths beyond the sports industry,” said Nolan Harrison III, Senior Director at NFLPA. “There are countless sectors where NFL players can offer tremendous value—industries that often remain unexplored due to limited exposure. This collaboration with NEXXT is an exciting step forward, as it will introduce players to new professional opportunities and unlock a world of possibilities for their careers beyond the game.”
Former athletes have an abundance of transferable skills that make them highly sought-after candidates. By joining NFLPA Jobs, they’ll gain access to a powerful job search platform tailored to help them transition successfully into their next role.
Features such as access to high-quality jobs from thousands of top employers across the country, job alerts that match their interests, and the ability to create a comprehensive professional profile seen by companies looking to hire, users are set up for long-term career success beyond the field. NFLPA Jobs empowers athletes to take the next step with confidence, providing the tools and opportunities needed to build a meaningful and rewarding new chapter.
"Nexxt is extremely excited to partner with the NFLPA to support their members in finding their next career opportunities,” said John Krautzel, Vice President of Marketing & Member Experience at Nexxt. “We recognize that these candidates are driven, self-confident, and exceptional team players — qualities that make them outstanding hires. Top companies are actively seeking candidates with these attributes, and we’re excited to bridge that connection.”
