Redshirt senior offensive tackle Cam Jones signed an WWE NIL deal to join the #NextInLine program. The 6-foot-8, 320 pound lineman from Knott County, Kentucky definitely looks the part of a potential WWE Superstar. Jones came to Cincinnati as a quarterback, moved to tight end, then offensive line and now will have the opportunity to train in the WWE.
Congrats to Cam!
Per USA Today:
WWE launched the program to expand its search for potential superstars. NIL athletes get access to the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida. There are also resources geared toward brand building, media training and live event promotion among others. The program also focuses on recruiting athletes from diverse athletic backgrounds. Since its inception, 46 collegiate athletes have signed NIL deals.
