Dylan Stewart NIL: Why South Carolina freshman EDGE agreed to new deal before Citrus Bowl
South Carolina football coach Shane Beamer talks after win vs Clemson
Hear what South Carolina football coach Shane Beamer said after the Gamecocks beat Clemson in Week 14 in the annual Palmetto Bowl.
As Shane Beamer and No. 14 South Carolina were preparing for their Citrus Bowl game vs. No. 20 Illinois, the Gamecocks made a big offseason splash by landing former Ohio State five-star quarterback Air Noland on Dec. 23.
But that wasn’t the only splash Beamer and Co. made this offseason: They also retained star freshman defensive edge Dylan Stewart, keeping him from entering the transfer portal.
In a time where name, image and likeness (NIL) is at the forefront of player transactions — either in high school or the transfer portal — South Carolina and Stewart’s representatives had to do some in-season renegotiations to ensure his roster spot didn’t open up heading into 2025.
Stewart has been an impact player on South Carolina’s defense from Week 1. In 12 games this season, Stewart has recorded 9.5 tackles for a loss, 6.5 sacks, four quarterback hurries and three forced fumbles.
He was named to the SEC All-Freshman team and was a finalist for the Shaun Alexander Freshman of the Year Award, which is given out annually to the top freshman college football player in the country by the Maxwell Football Club.
Here’s what you need to know about Stewart’s NIL situation as the 6-foot-6 defensive edge and the Gamecocks take on Illinois in the Citrus Bowl on Tuesday:
Dylan Stewart-South Carolina NIL situation
It was first reported by The State in November that Stewart and South Carolina’s NIL collective, The Garnet Trust, were working towards a new NIL agreement to keep the star freshman defensive edge in Columbia with the Gamecocks.
At the time both parties began negotiations, the NCAA transfer portal was not open yet.
Both parties came to an agreement on Tuesday, Dec. 10, two days after South Carolina learned it missed out on making the College Football Playoff and a day after the opening of the fall transfer portal window.
According to On3’s Pete Nakos, the deal is a one-year “contract” and Stewart is expected to receive between $1 million and $1.5 million in NIL compensation. Stewart has since signed with the Garnet Trust, the official NIL collective of the Gamecocks.
What is Dylan Stewart NIL value?
According to On3, Stewart’s NIL valuation is $1.6 million.
Dylan Stewart stats
Stewart ranks second on South Carolina for sacks at six ½, placing him only behind Kyle Kennard. His 6.5-sack mark ranks third among all FBS freshman and is 1.5 shy of tying Jadeveon Clowney for the South Carolina freshman sack record.
Here’s a full breakdown of Stewart’s stats this season at South Carolina:
- Tackles: 20
- Tackles for loss: 9.5
- Sacks: 6.5
- Forced fumbles: 3
- Passes defensed: 1

Clyburn says record speaks for itself, warns GOP to ‘be very careful what you pray for’
CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCIV) — Rep. Jim Clyburn appeared on CNN’s State of the Union Sunday morning and said he remains confident he could win another term in a redistricted South Carolina.
Host Jake Tapper asked Rep. Clyburn what it would mean for South Carolina voters if his seat, which represents the state’s sixth congressional district, was eliminated. The congressman said voters will have the last word and he will run irrespective of the new makeup of his district.
“I don’t know why people think I could not get re-elected if they redistrict South Carolina,” he said before pointing out his district as currently drawn contains about 45% Black voters. “I have no idea what the demo will be after the legislature finishes [redistricting], but whatever that number is I will be running on a record and a promise – my record, and America’s promise.”
Clyburn, as one of the more prominent Democratic voices in American politics in the South over the past several decades, said his pitch to voters won’t change even if his new district is drawn to house more Republicans.
“I think that it is very clear to most people in America that voters, most voters, believe in fundamental fairness, most voters believe in competence, and most voters can tell the difference between a true public servant and someone who may be in it for the next social hit,” he said.

The 17-term representative also said he believes Republicans’ redistricting plan could backfire.
“Be very careful what you pray for, because what I do believe is that when they finish with the redistricting, there will be the possibilities of at least three Democrats getting elected here in South Carolina to the United States Congress,” he said.
If re-elected, Clyburn would begin his 18th term in Congress in 2027. He has served as South Carolina’s representative for its Sixth Congressional District, which through multiple gerrymanders spanning decades has comprised of different parts of the Pee Dee, Midlands, and Lowcountry in some capacity, since 1993.
State lawmakers have pushed the redistricting issue legislatively in the last week in the wake of the US Supreme Court’s decision in Louisiana v. Callais. A special session on redistricting passed on Thursday in the State House, and more House legislation to push back congressional primaries to August advanced to the House Judiciary Committee Friday. The issue is expected to be taken back up in Columbia this week.
