AUSTIN (KXAN) — So much for the narrative of Quinn Ewers leaving money on the table for not playing another year in college.
Ewers announced that he’s entered an exclusive autograph trading card agreement with Panini America, and according to NBC Sports’ Mike Florio, the deal is worth $3 million.
Reports of exactly how much money Ewers was offered through Name, Image and Likeness deals by schools to transfer have varied wildly. Some reports had the Miami Hurricanes offer Ewers $4 million to transfer, and another school offered him up to $8 million.
Ewers’ rookie contract with the Miami Dolphins is worth $4.3 million over four years.
While at Texas, Ewers had NIL deals with high-profile brands like Dr Pepper, 7-Eleven, Sonic, Wrangler, Hulu, C4 Energy and Beats by Dre, among others. He also had one with Panini America. Perhaps his most interesting deal was with Nicholas Air, a boutique private jet company.
