Notre Dame Quarterback Riley Leonard Secures Major New NIL Deal

It's almost like being Notre Dame's starting quarterback brings a lot of attention with it

In this story:

Notre Dame quarterback Riley Leonard has a new name and image likeness deal and it'll be a hit for a certain number of Fighting Irish fans.

Are you big into the hat game?

If so then Leonard is now your guy as the Notre Dame signal caller has officially teamed up with hat maker New Era as a brand ambassador.

Leonard announced the partnership in a video on his social media this week which you can check out below.

Good for Leonard making some extra scratch while all he has to do is wear different hats and show up in a couple of videos.

Notre Dame doesn't publicly talk a ton about its NIL game but who out there thinks this very same Riley Leonard inks this deal if he's the starting quarterback at Duke this year?

Heck, not to say a random SEC team like let's just say Auburn, doesn't have an NIL fund, but did Payton Thorne announce a deal with a national hat company this week?

In all seriousness good for Riley.

And to him or any New Era folks that see this - can you do those of us with oddly shaped heads a favor and please add to the Notre Dame collection in the 39Thirty fit?
