Ex-Georgia QB Carson Beck’s Massive NIL Deal With Miami Revealed originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
In the NIL era of college football, quarterbacks don’t have to make the NFL to become millionaires. Signal-callers are reaching paydays in the multi-millions per season at the college level.

There’s few better examples of that than former Georgia Bulldogs quarterback Carson Beck.
On3’s Pete Nakos reported Sunday that Beck will make in excess of $4 million to play for the Miami Hurricanes this fall.
“One thing is clear: The price of an elite quarterback is not dropping,” Nakos wrote. “In this year’s college football transfer portal, jaw-dropping quarterback numbers included a $3 million offer from Duke for Darian Mensah.
“Georgia’s Carson Beck transferred to Miami and stands to make more than $4 million. Missouri agreed to terms on a $1.5 million deal with Penn State transfer Beau Pribula in December, too.”

The Bobby Carpenter Show host Anthony Schlegel said during the first week of June that Beck was going to make $4.3 million with his NIL deal in 2025.

Schlegel said that is ranked second-highest in college football behind only Texas Longhorns quarterback Arch Manning.
Beck announced his decision to transfer from Georgia to Miami on January 10, which was just a little more than a week after the Bulldogs suffered their playoff defeat to the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
Beck didn’t play in that game because of an elbow injury, which he sustained in the SEC Championship Game versus Texas.
During his final season with the Bulldogs, Beck completed 64.7% of his passes for 3,485 passing yards with 28 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. The quarterback posted significantly better statistics during 2023.

In Miami, Beck will replace quarterback Cam Ward, who became the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.
