Ohio State star wide receiver Jeremiah Smith has signed an NIL deal with a surprising shoe company, according to a post on social media.

Ohio State wide receiver Jeremiah Smith's new NIL deal with Adidas draws a response from Nebraska quarterback Dylan Raiola.

Smith isn’t the first athlete at a Nike school to ink such a deal — women’s basketball star Hailey Van Lith did so while at LSU, for example — but he is likely the most notable standout to do so while actively playing at the collegiate level.
