Recruiting the five-star plus prospect, Evan Stewart might be the best decision for Oregon, as the player has the potential to change the game for the Ducks. The most interesting fact is that the game-changer transferred to Oregon from Texas A&M. Along with that, the star player chose Oregon as he believed they would give him a chance to play in the same offense as QB Dillon Gabriel. It seems like landing Stewart can take place in the College Football Playoff for the Ducks. 

However, the young WB ranked as the No. 2 receiver in the 2022 class of recruitment and No. 13 overall among college athletes. In the present scenario of college football, the star wide receiver has made money through NIL deals. Let’s have a look at the 20-year-old NIL deals. 

Evan’s NIL deals and total valuation 

Stewart’s first NIL deal was signed with the football equipment brand NXTRND. Relating to this deal, On3 Sports writer Nakos said, “Landing Stewart was a key win for Oregon as it begins Big Ten play this fall. Now he’s signed his first major NIL deal since arriving in Eugene.” However, Stewart is not the one who signed with the brand as a star player because, before him, Travis Hunter, Luther Burden, and Caleb Downs joined them as the brand ambassador. NXTRND made back plates to gloves everything, and the company traveled out to Oregon to make a full shoot with Stewart. 

Not only NXTRND, but Evan also inked NIL deals with Coach and NOCCO USA, which is a popular European drink company. Along with that, Stewart is a player who has more than 2.4 million total followers on social media platforms. That is why dealing with this player can be beneficial for any company. The most important fact is Evan has been given an impressive NIL valuation of $1.3 million as per On3 NIL Valuation. So, you can imagine what kind of stellar performer Evan is. Let’s take a glimpse of his performance. 

Stewart’s talents as a wide receiver

In the past two seasons, in 2022, Stewart recorded 91 receptions and six touchdowns in 18 games. Unfortunately, in 2023, because of severe injury, the remarkable performer missed several games and he just played in eight games and managed to finish with 38 catches and four more scores.

But the star wide receiver did not lose hope throughout his hard time and overcame all the situation with his hard work and dedication. Now, let me tell you his immense love through one of his statements, “Wherever I go, I just hope the training staff can tell me the actual diagnosis of my injuries for my physical and mental health.” Most importantly, Duck’s head coach, Dan Lanning, said, “I think speed, catch radius”, praising Evan. It can be expected that Oregon will get success as Evan got the task to beat Ohio State, Michigan, and Penn State. Currently, the wide receiver puts heart and soul effort into bringing more success for the Ducks.
