I feel like the timing could’ve been better, but still, cool stuff here.
Cam Ward, the quarterback of the Miami Hurricanes, has learned the ways of a true QB: Take care of your offensive line and they’ll take care of you. And that’s exactly what he did recently as he gave them custom diamond chains and pendants as gifts.

A quarterback (and running back at that) gifting their offensive line with expensive gifts isn’t anything new. But as we all know, that kind of stuff has been reserved to only the big money makers of the National Football League. However, with student-athletes now making cash themselves these days, we’re starting to see this kind of stuff at the university level.
It’s not 100% known regarding the exact details of what Ward makes, but we do know he’s getting paid considering he has an NIL valuation of $2.1 million. It’s the eighth-highest valuation when it comes to both college and high school athletes, according to On3. Ward also has endorsements with EA Sports, Adidas and Bose.

Considering how Georgia Tech’s defenders were on Cam Ward’s ass in the most recent Miami game, the timing is a bit off here, I’m just saying. But still, cool gifts.
