Nebraska quarterback Dylan Raiola’s impressive NIL figure has been revealed for the 2025 season.
On3’s Pete Nakos reported Thursday that Raiola has already locked down over $3 million in NIL money for the 2025 season. That makes him one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the country.
The big number makes sense, even though Raiola did not have the best freshman season with the Cornhuskers in 2024. He was a high-profile recruit, and has also garnered plenty of attention for his striking similarity to Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
For context, Carson Beck is reportedly getting roughly $4 million this season after transferring to Miami. Beck is a former quarterback for a College Football Playoff team, demonstrating just how impressive Raiola’s NIL deal is.
Raiola threw for 2,819 yards as a true freshman in 2024 with 13 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. He guided the team to a 7-6 record, their first winning season since 2016, and expectations will be higher for his second college season.
