10 richest high school QBs for the 2024 season based on NIL

10. Faizon Brandon

The 6-foot-4 junior at Grimsley High School (North Carolina) has an NIL valuation of $530,000. 

The state of North Carolina prohibits NIL for high school athletes. 

“Please read this article (about how North Carolina doesn’t allow NIL for high school athletes),” Brandon tweeted on X. “I currently attend a public school in NC and I really hope this (NIL) law changes for me and other athletes that attend public schools in NC.”     

Brandon would have access to life-changing money through NIL if North Carolina’s state legislation were to change. The highly-touted QB has about 20,000 followers to capitalize off of on Instagram and X. His NIL valuation increased by another $100,000 after he committed to the Tennessee Volunteers this month.
