🏈 BREAKING NEWS: BYU Football Star Bear Bachmeier Lands $100 Million Endorsement Deal With Rob Walton — Donates $50M to Youth & Orphan Causes

The deal marks one of the largest NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) agreements ever awarded to a collegiate athlete — and underscores the rapidly growing power and branding potential of college football’s top talent.
But Bachmeier, just 20 years old, is already making headlines not just for his playmaking ability — but for his heart.
A Remarkable Pledge of Generosity
In an emotional press conference earlier today, Bachmeier announced he will be donating $40 million of his new deal to the Boys & Girls Clubs of America, aiming to expand youth sports and education programs across all 50 states.
“I wouldn’t be here without the mentors and coaches who invested in me when I was just a kid with a dream,” said Bachmeier. “Now it’s my turn to give back — and build up the next generation.”
He also committed an additional $10 million to support a network of orphanage homes, with plans to fund housing, education, and mental health programs for displaced and vulnerable youth.
“Not Just a Quarterback — A Movement”
Rob Walton, who personally signed off on the historic deal, called Bachmeier “a once-in-a-generation leader — on and off the field.”
“This isn’t just about football. Bear is building something bigger than sports. He’s inspiring young people to dream bigger, work harder, and care deeper,” Walton said in a joint statement.
Unstoppable On the Field
The 6’2″ junior quarterback has been lighting up scoreboards this season, leading the Cougars to a perfect 5-0 record with 17 touchdowns and just 1 interception. With Bachmeier under center, BYU is now a legitimate contender for the College Football Playoff.
Analysts are already comparing his leadership style to NFL legends like Peyton Manning and Drew Brees — but with the composure and community focus of a young LeBron James.
What’s Next?
With massive media buzz, a philanthropic mission underway, and NFL scouts watching his every throw, Bear Bachmeier’s future looks brighter than ever — but it’s clear he’s already winning where it matters most.
“Football is what I do,” he said, “but giving back — that’s who I am.”
