This year’s top player in high school football is Julian JuJu Lewis, the quarterback. Although the Carrollton product has committed to play for the USC Trojans, he is still visiting other universities.

He still has faith in Lincoln Riley and the program, even in spite of how some people interpret such encounters.

“I’m still under contract with USC as of right now. I still consider that to be my home. During an interview on Colorado Buffaloes quarterback Shedeur Sanders’s podcast, 2Legendary, Lewis stated, “I was going to go see what’s going on everywhere else, but I’m still USC right now. Taking visits is kind of a part of the process.”

Sanders has been extremely successful in the NIL era; according to On3, he is the top-ranked player in terms of valuation. From his own perspective, Lewis has performed admirably in the NIL domain.

The great quarterback, who is valued at $1.1 million, is ranked No. 18 on the NIL 100 and tied for No. 2 among athletes in high school.David Sanders Jr., an offensive lineman from Providence Day School and a Tennessee Volunteer, is likewise valued at $1.1 million.

Bryce Underwood, the quarterback from Belleville High School, is the only one who is higher. The value of the LSU commitment is $1.3 million.

Lewis has NIL agreements with numerous businesses. Among the well-known companies in his portfolio are Cactus Jacks, Alo Yoga, Leaf Trading Cards, and the men’s jewelry line Jaxxon.

But the Carrollton product disclosed that he had one ideal company he would like to work with, and Sanders recently inked a contract with it.

“Everyone wants that smooth stuff—Jordan, Nike, and all that.” I believe that landing a Nike contract is every child’s dream.

Lewis was interested in another company as well. Without hesitation, he said when Sanders asked if there was one endorsement agreement he could personally select.

“I won’t lie, Texas was the center of the Lambo controversy. It was a cool junt,” Lewis remarked. As in, back when they had that stuff. Things like that, especially for a sixteen-year-old, are striking. You’re thinking of going to buy a Lamborghini. Things of those sort. That’s very awesome. I’m not entirely sure.

If Lewis keeps going in the same direction, big businesses like Nike and Lamborghini will be lining up to sign him.

During his final season, he has started the season well. Carrollton defeated Rome 44–22 in the season opener thanks to his 352 yards of passing for five touchdowns and one running score.
