Wisconsin’s offensive line has agreed to a huge NIL deal with Mission BBQ.
Quarterback Graham Mertz announced Tuesday night that the popular BBQ chain has reached a sponsorship with the big guys responsible for protecting him. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)
Financial details weren’t released, but I’m sure the guys on Wisconsin’s line are being taken care of!

While I don’t know much about Mission BBQ, a quick Google search told me that they seem like the perfect partner for Wisconsin’s offensive line.
BBQ is what big guys like to eat, and nobody has bigger guys up front than Wisconsin.

Isn’t the era of NIL awesome? Players are finally earning some money on the side as they make schools across the country billions and billions of dollars.
This is America, and people deserve to get paid what they’re worth. Now, Mission BBQ is cutting checks to the men responsible for protecting Graham Mertz.
I love it.
