The series is set to premiere in July. Filming has been under way since last September, Esquire said. The four reps featured in “Agent” are: Jeff Guerriero, who has repped more than 100 professional football players since 1998; Peter Schaffer, a certified NFL agent for 24 years; Sunny Shah, a former Wall Streeter turned indie sports agent; Ed Wasielewski, a 10-year professional agent looking for big signings. “Agent” is exec produced by Mark Herzog and Christopher G. Cowan for Herzog & Co/HCO, the banner behind CNN’s “The Sixties.” Vincent DiPersio and Josh Mamann also exec produce.
