The Jacksonville Jaguars have the No. 1 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft and it’s a near certainty that the team will use that pick to select Lawrence.

Other brands are also working with Lawrence. Sportico is reporting that Lawrence will sign with Adidas. Lawrence has previously expressed his affinity for Adidas, tweeting in 2016 that the brand “hands down has the best shoes/gear out right now.”

On Monday, Topps announced the release of a set of cards featuring Lawrence.

And, while not a formal endorsement deal, Lawrence helped the brand Revolution Cooking increase its visibility after Jaguars fans banded together in a viral campaign to purchase Lawrence and his wife Marissa one of its toasters.
