There’s one very important deal Marcus Mariota still needs to sign.
But he put his name on another dotted line last week.
According to the Pacific Business News, the Titans quarterback has signed an endorsement deal with Island Insurance Co., Ltd. to appear on their advertising materials and their website.
“Marcus’ athletic talents are without question, but it is the quality of his character that makes him such a special individual,” said John Schapperle, president and CEO of Island Insurance. “His integrity, humility and pride in his island roots are values we hold deeply and have been cornerstones of our company culture for 75 years.”
It’s his second endorsement deal in his native Hawaii, along with First Hawaiian Bank. He has national endorsement deals with Beats by Dre headphones, Nike and Subway.
Of course, Mariota has yet to sign his rookie contract with the Titans, as they are holding firm on the inclusion of offset language in his deal, because, well, because they always have. The Titans report to camp on July 30, and begin practicing the next day.
