Georgia quarterback Stetson Bennett is making the most of his NIL opportunities coming off of a national championship. According to On3, Bennett has an NIL valuation of $699,000, which ranks him 27th among all college football players.

Bennett recently added another NIL deal by starring in a commercial for Pointe Grand, an apartment complex in Athens. The quarterback plays a mailman in the commercial, a reference to the nickname that he was given in high school after wearing a U.S. Postal Service hat to the Elite 11 camp.

The commercial starts out with Bennett delivering a package to two of the residents from the complex, one of whom expressed surprise at seeing the Georgia quarterback delivering mail. That sets up Bennett for the punchline, “I deliver. That’s what I do.”

Other than the commercial with Pointe Grand, Bennett has also secured NIL deals previously with Topps, Georgia Power, Raising Cane’s and many more. As he prepares to face Oregon in the season opener at 3:30 p.m. ET on Saturday, he’ll hope his play this season can earn him many more.

A new walk-on is with the Georgia program, with Luke Henry Bennett, the brother of Stetson, making the roster this season. He is listed as a wide receiver but also played running back coming out of high school.

Stetson was asked what it meant to have his brother within the program, with the quarterback saying it’s special. The two had never been on a team together due to their age difference but will both suit up for the Bulldogs this season.

“Just seeing him every day in the locker room, going and grabbing bites to eat,” Bennett said. “Just the little stuff. It’s super cool because we’re never on the same team, never did that stuff. Pretty special. Super lucky.”

Bennett was then asked if he had any advice for his younger brother but was not willing to give up the secrets. He wanted to keep the moment between the two of them.

“A few things but I will keep that between us two,” Bennett said with a wink.
