Ohio State's star receiver Jeremiah Smith signed an NIL deal with Adidas, but he won't be able to wear the German company's shoes during OSU games.

Jeremiah Smith is following up Ohio State's national title by joining the Three Stripes. The standout wide receiver is signing a Name, Image and Likeness deal with Adidas, the brand announced Wednesday.

Smith isn’t the first athlete at a Nike school to ink such a deal — women’s basketball star Hailey Van Lith did so while at LSU, for example — but he is likely the most notable standout to do so while actively playing at the collegiate level.
