Michigan fans can’t get enough of J.J. McCarthy, especially now that the Wolverines decided he is the starting quarterback moving forward. The fan base is so excited about McCarthy that a new autographed trading card created through his NIL deal with The M Den sold out in less than an hour.

On Tuesday, The M Den released a new limited edition “Michigan Moments” trading card series that was available for pre-order. The card highlighting McCarthy’s first start at quarterback for the Wolverines came in two different versions – autographed and blank. Both went on sale Tuesday afternoon on The M Den’s website, and within an hour the autographed version that goes for $100 was sold out.

The M Den’s website says the item is now “out of stock” but fans still add the item to their wish list for additional future releases.

J.J. McCarthy has strong On3 NIL Valuation

The sold-out item is another example of how excited Wolverine fans are about J.J. McCarthy, who signed with Michigan as the No. 9 ranked quarterback in the Class of 2021. And there’s plenty to get excited about.

In a Week 2 win over Hawaii, McCarthy went 11-for-12 for 229 yards and three touchdowns. His lone incompletion was a drop from fifth-year wideout Ronnie Bell. McCarthy ended the day with a 334.5 passer rating.

J.J. McCarthy currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $337,000. The On3 NIL Valuation is the industry’s leading index that sets the standard market NIL value for high school and college athletes. The On3 NIL Valuation calculates the optimized NIL opportunity for athletes relative to the overall NIL market and projects out to as long as 12 months into the future.

Along with his agreement with The M Den, which was facilitated by Valiant Management, McCarthy also has NIL deals with Dunkin’, Eberg Capital and the Randy Wise Automotive Team.
