Texas QB Arch Manning holds the top NIL evaluation in college football

Arch Manning’s NIL value is the highest in college football.

Arch Manning may have just gotten to college, but the Texas freshman quarterback is one of the biggest names in the sport.

On3 Sports updated its NIL evaluations following the end of the 2022 college football season. The new list has Manning as the No. 2 overall athlete behind only star basketball player Bronny James.

The grandson of Archie, son of Cooper and nephew of Peyton and Eli announced his commitment to Texas this past summer. The No. 1 ranked recruit and Five-Star Plus+ quarterback has since enrolled early with the Longhorns, ready to begin spring classes. Arch Manning may not have the largest social media following, yet his name recognition for a high school prospect is unprecedented. He also has the opportunity to partner with his superstar uncles in NIL ventures.

Plenty of Texas players are taking advantage of NIL opportunities. Quinn Ewers and Bijan Robinson partnered with many brands this past season. Even a few of Manning’s fellow 2023 signees are already getting in on the NIL action.
