Virginia Union all-world running back Jada Byers has signed a NIL deal.

The Panthers star signed an endorsement agreement with 4th Quarter Performance, an Atlanta-based training facility that promotes the goal of “helping others align their mental, physical, and spiritual well-being in order to lay a solid foundation for future success.”

Byers led the CIAA in rushing with conference and VUU record 1,920 yards winning a host of awards in 2022. He took home the Don Hansen Division II College Football Player of the Year, CIAA Player of the Year, and the Willie Lanier Award, which is given to the top football player at the D-II, D-III or NAIA level in the state of Virginia.

Byers, who was a First Team All-CIAA performer and the conference’s Player of the Year, is one of the first NIL signees for 4th Quarter Performance.
