Alongside Texas gunslinger Quinn Ewers and Colorado signal-caller Shedeur Sanders, the Georgia football program houses one of the best college quarterbacks in the country, Carson Beck. Last season, Beck took over as the incumbent starting quarterback in Athens, Georgia, following a fantastic three-year stretch from his predecessor, Stetson Bennett. Beck shined as a first-year starter, throwing 24 touchdowns against six picks while leading the Georgia Bulldogs to a fantastic 13-1 record. Beck will return to Georgia next fall with national title and Heisman Trophy aspirations. In the NIL era, Beck’s status is music to the ears of partnering brands, with one private jet company striking a deal with the passer on Friday.
According to On3 Sports reporter Pete Nakos, the Georgia passer will sign an NIL deal with private jet company Airstar Charter. He becomes the third SEC quarterback to land an NIL arrangement with a private jet company.

“Every great dream begins with a single step of faith. It’s not about the accolades or the applause. It’s about the countless hours, the sacrifices, and the relentless pursuit of something greater. Every drop of sweat, every moment of doubt, is a step closer to turning dreams into a reality. Because dreams aren’t just goals, they are the journey that shapes us. And along the way are the people we inspire and the lives we touch that truly define our success. So keep dreaming, keep striving, and remember it’s not the destination but the journey that counts. Airstar, make your journey elite.”
The financials regarding Beck’s deal with Airstar remain unknown. Still, the signal-caller also landed a NIL deal with Zero FG Energy Drink earlier this offseason, and both deals came to fruition through the Everett Sports Marketing group. According to On3 Sports, Beck owns a NIL valuation of $1.4 million, the sixth-highest mark in the FBS. He is the third passer to strike a deal with a private jet company.
Quinn Ewers and Jaxson Dart: Sign with Private Jet Company
On Friday, Georgia football star Carson Beck announced his signing with private jet company Airstar. However, he is not the first SEC passer to strike a deal with an exclusive jet company. Earlier this offseason, Texas Longhorns Heisman hopeful quarterback Quinn Ewers and Ole Miss Rebels standout Jaxson Dart agreed to NIL deals with Nicholas Air. The two passers will receive flight hours towards travel, training, and philanthropy.
Ewers owns an NIL valuation of $1.7 million, slightly higher than Beck’s $1.4 million. Meanwhile, Dart’s NIL valuation is $1.3 million, the eighth-best mark in the FBS. However, the trio of passers fall well short of Colorado Buffaloes quarterback Shedeur Sanders and his $4.7 million NIL valuation.
Carson Beck: Entering Second Year Starting with Georgia Football
The Georgia football program will again lean on quarterback Carson Beck in 2024. Last season, his first as a starting quarterback for juggernaut Georgia, Beck threw for 3,941 yards, 24 touchdowns, and six picks. He also added 116 yards and four scores via the ground. The 21-year-old earned second-team All-SEC honors. However, Georgia fell in the SEC Championship game against the Alabama Crimson Tide, spoiling their chance at a three-peat as CFP winners. Beck did not record a passing touchdown or interception in the contest.
However, Beck rebounded, going 13-of-18 for 203 yards and two scores in a blowout Orange Bowl victory against Florida State Seminoles. Beck, alongside Quinn Ewers and Dillon Gabriel, are the favorites to hoist the 2024 Heisman Trophy Award.
