Multiple college football players have joined WWE's "Next in Line" name, image and likeness (NIL) program. Cincinnati's Cameron Jones, Kentucky's Dee Beckwith, Rutgers' Isaiah Iton, Arkansas' Landon Jackson and Penn State's Nick Dawkins were among 15 athletes announced to the program Thursday. Forty-six athletes inked “Next In Line” deals since the program was launched in late 2021. The program exits to "recruit and develop potential future Superstars and further enhances WWE’s talent development process through collaborative partnerships with college athletes from diverse athletic background," according to the WWE website. Benefits for athletes who sign on to the program include access to the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Fla., plus resources in various aspects needed for success in WWE, including but not limited to brand building, media training and communication. Completion of the program may result in athletes earning exclusive WWE contract offers.

This is the way NIL should be done.
Some need to be signing NASCAR NIL like this… I think 90% of the pit crews are former athletes.
I would like to see NFL and NBA paying kids to stay in school. Like each basketball power 5 school gets $2m from the NBA to be divided how the school sees fit. Would be a better use of money than subsidizing the WNBA. Could keep the league more healthy by forcing them to learn skills and not just be ran out the league within a year.
Would also like to see some of them get MMA sponsors… most are out the NFL by 25. If they had trained the basics with their athleticism, they could be making more money than Greg Hardy and be up there with Jon Jones.
