Las Vegas Bowl, as the 23rd-ranked Utah Utes clash with the Colorado State Rams
at Sam Boyd Stadium on Saturday.SAN FRANCISCO -- Now that he has a stock tied to
his football career, San Francisco 49ers tight end Vernon Davis is thinking more
like a CEO looking out for his shareholders interests, as well as for himself.
Thats among the reasons why Davis wants the 49ers to pay him more money even
though he still has two years still left on his current contract. The deal,
originally signed in 2010, calls for him to make about $10 million through the
National Football Leagues 2015 season. "I feel like its the right time to get an
extension," Davis said Wednesday in an interview with The Associated Press. His
remarks came shortly before the 49ers announced they had given their star
quarterback, Colin Kaepernick, a six-year contract extension through the 2020
season for a reported $110 million. If Davis secures a longer contract too, it
will be a boon for investors who bought a stake in his football career through
an unusual tracking stock from Fantex Inc. The San Francisco company paid Davis
$4 million in return for 10 per cent of his future earnings from football,
commercial endorsements and other jobs that he may get during the remainder of
his life because of his success in sports. Investors who own any of the 421,000
shares of Fantex tracking stock tied to Davis will also benefit from his success
through dividends and potential appreciation in the stocks price. Davis tracking
stock climbed $1.20 Wednesday to $11.20, slightly above its initial public
offering price of $10. The shares have traded as high as $12.50 since their
debut on Fantexs online exchange in late April. The IPO minted Davis, an
eight-year veteran of the 49ers, as the first professional athlete to be traded
like a stock.

want to talk to me. They want to hug me. ...You get a lot of people who say, Ive
got stock in you." Although Fantex completed the IPO of the tracking stock five
weeks ago, U.S. securities regulations prohibited Davis from publicly discussing
the investment until Wednesday. Not long after he was able to talk about the
stock, Davis said he fielded calls from 49er teammates Justin Smith,
Vance McDonald and C.J. Spillman inquiring about his arrangement with Fantex.
For now, business comes before football for Davis, who is considered to be among
the best tight ends in the game. He caught a career-best 13 touchdowns last
season. But Davis, 30, already has played nearly three times longer than the
average NFL career of three seasons. He said he wants to play "until my toes
fall off" and hopes to spend his entire career with the 49ers. The big question
now is whether the 49ers will acquiesce to his demands for a longer contract. As
part of his negotiating tactics, Davis skipped the 49ers voluntary team workouts
this week. His absence cost him a $200,000 bonus. Davis will be aiming to make
that money back in his contract extension, although he declined to say how much
he is seeking. In an appraisal made leading up to the IPO, Fantex predicted
Davis would land at least one more football contract worth $33 million. While
Davis negotiates with the 49ers, Fantex is trying to sell tracking stocks tied
to the careers of two other NFL players: Buffalo Bills quarterback EJ Manuel and
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Mohamed Sanu.
