Four-star 2024 QB CJ Carr's On3 NIL Valuation reaches $138,000 after Notre Dame commitment
Five days after 2024 four-star quarterback CJ Carr announced his surprising commitment to Notre Dame, the rising junior’s On3 NIL Valuation has ballooned to new heights.
The metric looks to set the standard market value for both high school and college-level athletes. The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.

Carr’s On3 NIL Valuation climbed this week to $137,000, and he’s seen a 1,252 percent increase in the value over the last 14 weeks; on April 12, it was just $10,000. Social media presence is a massive driver of the On3 NIL Valuation, and Carr has approximately 6,800 followers across Instagram, Twitter and Tik Tok. He is most visible on Instagram with more than 4,000 followers. All things considered, the value of each post from Carr is just over $400.
He also now ranks as the No. 85 player in the On3 High School Football NIL Rankings, which includes all current high school football players regardless of graduating class.
Carr ranks as the nation’s No. 1 player from Michigan, No. 5 quarterback and No. 23 player overall in the 2024 per On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He chose the Irish over Georgia, LSU, Michigan, Michigan State and Wisconsin.

“I love Notre Dame,” Carr told On3’s Chad Simmons about committing to the Irish. “I know exactly how I will be coached there, I know what will be expected of me and I am excited to help build the recruiting class.”
Carr has been adamant about the latter recruiting point. In fact, he was already back on campus a couple of days after his commitment. One of Notre Dame’s other 2024 commits and four-star defensive lineman Brandon Davis-Swain joined him.
As Davis-Swain cited, both rising juniors are from Michigan. Carr attends Saline (Mich.) High just outside of Ann Arbor, Mich., while Davis-Swain attends West Bloomfield (Mich.) High northwest of Detroit.
Fellow defensive lineman Owen Wafle is the third member of Notre Dame’s 2024 class at the current moment. He is a four-star defensive lineman out of Princeton (N.J.) Hun School.
