Alabama EDGE Will Anderson Jr. signs NIL deal with Dr Teal's

Alabama EDGE Will Anderson Jr. announced Wednesday that he agreed to an NIL deal with the wellness and personal care brand Dr Teal’s.

“Between workouts, practice, and game day, my schedule is hectic every week,” Anderson wrote in the caption of an Instagram post. “After pushing my body to the limit, I need to fit in time to relax and recover. That’s why I’m proud to partner with @DrTeals! I soak in Dr Teal’s Epsom Salts to help speed up my recovery time and recharge my sore muscles all season.”

Anderson voiced over the video he posted on Instagram, which shows him running, stretching and doing crunches, before pouring a bag of Dr Teal’s Pure Epsom Salt into a bath tub.

Anderson has previously signed NIL deals with BMW of Tuscaloosa, the apparel company Rhoback and the fast-food restaurant chain Krystal. In the comments of Anderson’s paid partnership with Dr Teal’s, the Instagram account for Rhoback commented, “A lot of opposing QBs are going to need this hookup.”

Halfway through the regular season, Anderson has recorded 29 total tackles, including 10 tackles for loss and five sacks. He also grabbed the first interception of his career, which he returned 25 yards for a touchdown.

Last season, Anderson finished with 101 total tackles, 31 tackles for loss and 17.5 sacks. He was named a unanimous first-team All-American and the Bronko Nagurski Trophy winner, which is awarded to the country’s best defensive player.

Will Anderson Jr.’s On3 NIL Valuation

With an On3 NIL Valuation of $1.7 million, Anderson ranks No. 9 in the On3 NIL 100.

The On3 NIL Valuation is the industry’s leading index that sets the standard NIL market value for high school and college athletes. It uses a proprietary algorithm that calculates an athlete’s NIL market value using dynamic data points targeting three primary categories, including an athlete’s performance, influence and evaluation.

While the algorithm includes NIL deal data, it does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals athletes have completed to date, nor does it set an athlete’s NIL valuation for the athlete’s entire career. The On3 NIL Valuation calculates the optimized NIL market value for athletes relative to the overall NIL market and projects out to as long as 12 months into the future.

The On3 NIL 100 is the first of its kind and the defacto NIL ranking of the top 100 high school and college athletes ranked based upon their On3 NIL Valuations.
