The University of Texas is willing to shell out a lot of money for its football team this upcoming season.
The Houston Chronicle reports the program will pay between $35 million to $40 million for its 2025 roster. That would include up to $20.5 million in revenue sharing plus NIL payments from the Texas One Fund.
NBCSports.com also reports quarterback Arch Manning “will be the highest paid Longhorn by far. All of his money comes from NIL deals done separate and apart from the school.”
Texas will not disclose what each player will make, NBCSports.com reports.
“While $45 million seems like a lot, remember this. The NFL’s initial per-team salary cap, way back in 1994, was $34.6 million. This year, it’s $279.2 million.”
