Leonard Fournette Says He Would've Made Over $10M from NIL Deals During LSU Career

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette said on the Rich Eisen Show that he could have made over $10 million in name, image and likeness (NIL) deals if they were allowed by the NCAA during his time at LSU:

Fournette was a superstar for the Tigers. He notably amassed 2,206 yards and 23 touchdowns during the 2015 season, which followed a 1,161-yard, 10-touchdown performance the year before despite sharing the backfield with Terrence Magee.

Naturally, Fournette would have broken the bank at LSU, one of the biggest football programs in the country and a place where over 100,000 people routinely watch home games.
