Justin Fields has signed his first endorsement deal

Former Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields has landed his first endorsement deal with an energy drink company.

The NFL draft is just days away and no one has been more scrutinized than Ohio State’s Justin Fields. It is still unknown exactly why there has been so much criticism, but what we do know is Fields is going to be a first-round draft pick.

And deservedly so. The guy has done nothing but win in college while putting up some incredible stats. If anyone wants to question Fields’ heart and desire, just take a quick look back at the hit he took in the Sugar Bowl, sat out one play, and came back to play one of the best games ever in Ohio State history.

Either way, the former OSU quarterback is going to make a lot of money. Not only will he sign an NFL that will be very lucrative, but there are the endorsements as well.

Fields took the first steps in that direction with his first endorsement deal with C4 Energy. C4 is an energy drink and they seem pretty excited to have Fields on board. Just take a look at the official release via the C4 Energy Twitter account below.

I feel confident this will only be the beginning of many more deals to come for a young man with a baby face and a great deal of charisma. Now, if you’ll excuse me while I go find a can of C4 Energy to get me through the rest of the day.

Now, if only the marketing folks would make a college legend scarlet and gray designed can, they might be onto something.
