He is guaranteed only $131,576. So, if he gets cut by the Dolphins in the preseason, he's probably looking at a practice squad situation or would sign somewhere for league minimum for 1 year. That appears to be a pay cut from college.

College kids making more is insane to me

More like absurd

Same kid that sat out his senior year of high school to get NIL money from OSU and never played a down. No thanks.

Oswald31•3 days

His nil money was from a family friend's kombucha company, not OSU. He only went to OSU because state of texas didn't allow him to get paid yet.

Member playing a full season in college and playing in a one read offense will land you exactly where Ewers finds himself.

SOL2•7 days

It's good he's already made his money. I don't think the NFL will be kind to him.

Solo Cam•7 days

For those that don't know- Quinn turned down an 8 million dollar NIL offer.

Dadren•7 days

I feel like this is indicative of how ridiculous NIL is. I’d think the NFL is a lot better at evaluating value than idiots throwing money at 247 ratings.

Invest wisely, learn the playbook from a dynamic coach try to hang on as backup and eventually coach.

And leave the game with a still intact head, body, and mind.

Not bad!

Zappas Stache•7 days

Had to take a pay cut

So let’s see the agreement.

Basura Blanco•7 days

Exactly. The next signed NIL contractual agreement released in its entirety will be the first. I find it fascinating that people are quick to question whether a game is fixed yet assume these NIL deals that have never been made public are gospel.

Ok, you use the default number of your starting QB? Makes sense!

Drizzt•7 days

He would have made more in NIL

Fightin Okra•7 days

Arch making more as his back up

HagaDaga•8 days

Iirc this was the guy that really started the whole nil/portal mess. At least with major programs.

Steve Janowski•8 days

I thought Tua was #1? I wonder how much it cost him to get that number?

jmorr34•8 days

Probably just a default number like when you get drafted and hold up the #1 jersey. Might not have a number yet.

Violent Hip Swivel•8 days

I give him credit. He didn't want to do the portal again because he wanted to be remembered as a Texas Longhorn. Can't stay in college forever.

Money might beg to differ with you

Jay31•7 days

People are down voting you but I tend to agree with you. Especially after the OSU debacle.

mpwilging•8 days

He ain't that good, that's why.

Furious•8 days

he is very fortunate, because he was highly overrated in college. He is not that good and will never be a steady starting QB in the NFL. His best hope is to have a Matt Flynn like career, although Flynn was a much better QB.

Is this a normal 7th round contract?

Now it is. League min of 750k.
