University of Kentucky Football quarterback Will Levis forms an NIL partnership with thoroughbred stallion, War of Will.
The deal was announced by sports management company Athlete Advantage. The agreement involves a multimedia advertising campaign that will focus on the athleticism of football players and racehorses.
Will Levis is 1 6-3 senior from Madison, Connecticut. During the 2021 season, he was a two-time FBS National Offensive Player of the Week for his performances against LSU and Louisville. Levis previously played for Penn State.
War of Will is a syndicated thoroughbred stallion standing at Claiborne Farm in Paris, Kentucky. The horse gained a victory in the 2019 Preakness Stakes, becoming the first American Classic winner sired by internationally renowned stallion, War Front, which also stands at Claiborne Farm. War of Will stands for a fee of $25,000 and his first foals are being born this Spring.
Claiborne Farm has been home to some of the most influential horses to ever race on turf and dirt, including Bold Ruler, Forego, Personal Ensign, Ruffian, Seabiscuit, Swale, and Secretariat–considered by many to be the greatest racehorse of all time.
