Quinn Ewers and the Texas Longhorns are rolling, as they are fresh off a 49-17 victory over the Florida Gators in Week 11. With an 8-1 record, Texas is currently the No. 3 ranked team in the country, and assuming they don't collapse over the final few weeks of the season, they should easily qualify for the College Football Playoff.
While Ewers missed some time earlier this season due to an oblique injury, he's been one of the best quarterbacks in the nation when he's been on the field. Through seven games, Ewers has completed 69.3% of his passes for 1,722 yards while racking up 20 total touchdowns.
Not only is Ewers winning on the field, but he's also been doing quite well for himself off the field too. The star Longhorns quarterback recently announced his latest NIL deal in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, revealing that he's partnering with non-alcoholic beer company Athletic Brewing.
"Teaming up with the #1 non-alcoholic beer brand in the country means I always have a tasty NA beer after a win," Ewers shared in his announcement on social media.

NIL deals have completely revolutionized college sports, and Ewers has certainly benefited by landing several big deals. Of course, the Texas star was the first college athlete to land an NIL deal worth over $1 million when he agreed to be one of the cover athletes for the EA Sports College Football 25 video game.
Now, Ewers has landed a more unique NIL deal with Athletic Brewing, which specializes in creating non-alcoholic craft beer.
This is certainly a nice win for Ewers off the field, but with the Longhorns gearing up for one final playoff push, he's going to have to quickly turn his attention back towards the field, as his team has a big contest coming up against Arkansas when they return to action in Week 12.
