Ohio State's star receiver Jeremiah Smith signed an NIL deal with Adidas, but he won't be able to wear the German company's shoes during OSU games.

Ohio State star wide receiver Jeremiah Smith has signed an NIL deal with a surprising shoe company, according to a post on social media.

CBS Sports spoke to a source with knowledge of the agreement Wednesday, who acknowledged Smith would still wear Nike with the Buckeyes this season. Ohio State signed a then record-setting 15-year agreement with the Swoosh in 2016 to be the Buckeyes' official apparel sponsor.
