How Rich Is Texans Quarterback CJ Stroud?

Before getting drafted into the NFL, C.J. Stroud played for Ohio State University as one of the country’s best quarterbacks. During his time as a Buckeye, Stroud raked in multiple name-image-likeness (NIL) deals. “It’s definitely changed my life for the future, and I think it’s a jump-start to being a businessman before you get to the NFL,” he told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram in September 2022. Being able to earn money off NIL deals in college was a fairly new rule which made Stroud grateful. “I feel bad for the older players that didn’t have the opportunity to get money from this … They should have made a killing,” Stroud added.

While at OSU, one of the more eye-catching NIL deals Stroud signed was with a car dealership in Canton. In exchange for promoting their dealership, Sarchione Auto Gallery leased the NCAA athlete with a Bentley Bentayga worth $150,000 in July 2022, per the Columbus Dispatch.

Earlier in the year, Stroud inked a deal to become a style ambassador for the clothing company Express in April 2022. Just before the season started in September of that year, the quarterback gifted his teammates $500 gift cards to buy new suits at the clothing store. “Make sure you’re looking fly. Make sure we all look like a team,” Stroud said in a video posted by the Buckeyes’ X, formerly Twitter, account. The endorsement deals were great, but it was not all smooth sailing at OSU for Stroud.
