There are still several months standing between us and another season of college football, but that isn’t stopping the sports’ biggest names from cashing checks.
Texas quarterback Arch Manning, who is finally set to take the reins as the starter in Austin, has been signing NIL deals and endorsements since he arrived on campus as a true freshman.
He continues to sign with companies across all scopes of interest and announced a new partnership on Tuesday morning.
Manning is now partnered with the clothing brand, “Vuori,” which was founded in 2015 in San Diego, California and has over 891K followers on Instagram. According to Forbes, the brand is valued at approximately $4 billion.
Vuori is hardly Manning’s first high-profile business partner, though, as he’s already signed previous deals with companies like EA Sports, Red Bull, Panini, and Uber.
Arch Manning’s current NIL value, according to On3’s database, is sitting at $6.5 million, ranking his first among all college football players and No. 1 in the NIL 100. That’s pretty incredible when you consider he’s started a total of two games in his collegiate career.
Manning will get his shot to live up to the hype in 2025, as he’s got an incredible collection of talent around him and should be locked in as a top-three team in the upcoming season. They’ll open up the season against the defending national champions, Ohio State, on August 30.
