UCLA's Tyger Campbell gets NIL deal with plant-based burger chain.
UCLA student-athlete Tyger Campbell has gained an NIL deal with vegan restaurant chain, Honeybee Burger. Campbell will use his social medial presence to draw attention to Honeybee’s menu, which includes plant-based burgers, fried chicken sandwiches, breakfast burritos, and more. When the deal was struck, Campbell had more than 50,000 followers on Instagram.
In a released statement, Honeybee Burger founder Adam Weiss said: “Honeybee’s mission is to expand plant-based eating beyond pure vegans, and Tyger’s fondness for our food is a perfect example of how great plant-based food can cross-over to traditional fast-food consumers.”
