University of Tennessee dual-threat quarterback Hendon Hooker gains an NIL partnership with clothing brand MUNICIPAL, a company co-founded by entertainer, Mark Wahlberg.
MUNICIPAL is a premium performance and style-driven athletic and casual apparel brand that blends comfort and functionality. The brand’s superior-quality garments are designed with comfort in mind and are versatile enough for work, fitness, and everything in between. The brand is excited to work with Hooker due to his “smooth and self-expressive style, confidence, and character (both on and off the field).”
The Tennessee Volunteers are currently ranked No. 2 nationally, and Hooker has played his way to a prominent position in the Heisman Trophy race. He’s currently leading the highest-scoring offense in the country (49.7 ppg), and he ranks second in the country in passing efficiency (191.64).
In a released statement from MUNICIPAL, Hooker says, “I’ve been a huge fan of MUNICIPAL pretty much since day one, so this partnership felt like a very natural fit for me. I feel personally aligned with what MUNICIPAL is all about and am looking forward to telling everybody about the brand.”
MUNICIPAL, founded in 2019 by Mark Wahlberg, Stephen Levinson, and Harry Arnett, was created to inspire people to GO FOR IT & overcome any obstacle that gets in their way. MUNICIPAL’s Sport Utility Gear is the most comfortable, stylish, and versatile version of the apparel that everyone loves to wear.
