Anthony Richardson has added a new NIL deal to his portfolio.
The Florida quarterback in September signed with Champs Sports, and on Monday, he came to terms on another deal with Fanatics, the sports apparel retailer, according to On3:
As part of the deal, Richardson is signing jerseys, posters and footballs. The quarterback’s jersey is also available on Fanatics, but currently out of stock.
Darren Heitner, the attorney who represents Richardson in NIL matters, told On3 that while the precise terms of Richardson’s deal were confidential, he was assured that “it was a very good deal” according to marketing experts he was in contact with.
Along with Fanatics and Champs Sports, Richardson is partnered with Outback Steakhouse through its community-focused “TeamMATES” program. He is also a member of the Gator Collective founded by former Gators pitcher Eddie Rojas and his wife, Kelli, which exists “to help the Gators win national championships in all of the major sports and make Florida ‘NIL U.'”
