The deal is a groundbreaking moment for college football
Shedeur Sanders, the son of NFL Hall of Famer Deion Sanders, has become the first college football player to sign a name, image, and likeness (NIL) deal with Nike.
The deal is a groundbreaking moment for college football, as it marks the first time that a major shoe company has signed an NIL deal with a college athlete.
Sanders is a highly touted quarterback who is entering his second season at Colorado. He is considered one of the top quarterbacks in the country and is expected to be a key player for the Buffaloes this season.
Nike is one of the most recognizable brands in the world, and its deal with Sanders is a major coup for the company.
The deal is also a major victory for Sanders, who has already established himself as one of the most marketable athletes in college football.
The terms of the deal have not been disclosed, but it is believed to be worth several million dollars.
Sanders is expected to wear Nike shoes and apparel both on and off the field.
The deal is a major step forward for the NIL landscape in college football.
It is likely to lead to more major shoe companies signing NIL deals with college athletes in the future.
