Hurricanes quarterback and Heisman trophy favorite Cam Ward signed a major NIL deal this week. Ward officially became a sponsored member of the Adidas team, joining the likes of Michael Penix, Jr. and Rome Odunze who both signed deals during spectacular seasons in 2023.

Ward is currently one the nation's top quarterbacks with a nation leading 2,538 yards and 24 touchdowns. He's led the Hurricanes to their first 7-0 record since 2017, becoming an important face for Adidas in the process.

Ward spoke on the deal, reitering that although it may look like a distraction, he is fully locked in.

"All that stuff has been done. It's just now getting out there. My mind has always been on football," Ward said.

Miami takes on in-state rival Florida State this weekend, looking to not only improve to 8-0, but make a lasting impression on over 100 recruits that will be in attendance.
