On Wednesday morning, Wisconsin starting quarterback Graham Mertz announced an ‘exclusive memorabilia partnership’ with sports memorabilia and collectible company, Panini America. This latest NIL deal comes after Mertz released his own clothing line earlier this month.

The NIL partnership will allow the company to sell exclusive Graham Mertz signed merchandise and collectibles. Along with the memorabilia, Panini America will host public signings with the Badgers’ quarterback. They have also announced NIL partnerships with Miami Hurricanes QB D’Eriq King and Ole Miss QB Matt Corral.
Wisconsin fans will now be able to get their hands on signed Mertz memorabilia to add to their collections for the upcoming season.
Huge thank you to @PaniniAmerica for selecting me to be one of their first college athlete partners. Looking forward to getting some signed memorabilia in your hands!
