Carson Beck’s Stellar Start with Miami

Beck made the move to Miami after a tough 2024 season at Georgia. He’d struggled with turnovers and dealt with an elbow injury that just wouldn’t quit.

The change of scenery seems to be working out for everyone. Beck’s tossed for 972 yards and seven touchdowns, with three picks in his first four games.

He’s starting to look like his 2023 self again. Miami’s early success? It’s hard not to give Beck a lot of the credit.

Statistical Highlights

Here’s a quick look at his stats so far:

Passing Yards: 972
Touchdowns: 7
Interceptions: 3
Completion Percentage: 73.2%

The Personal Challenges Beck Faced

Off the field, things haven’t been easy. Beck’s breakup with Hanna Cavinder happened after they’d started dating in summer 2024 and split up in early 2025.

The whole thing got a lot of media attention, and that’s the last thing any quarterback wants during a big season. Beck talked about it in an interview, calling the aftermath “difficult” and saying he was pretty frustrated with all the coverage.

Impact of the Breakup

There were a few consequences that came out of it:

Several cars, including Beck’s flashy red Lamborghini Urus, were stolen from their home.
He and Cavinder haven’t spoken since it ended.
Cavinder wiped any mention of Beck from her social media.

Beck’s NIL Deal and Financial Success

One of the biggest things about Beck’s Miami move? His Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) deal. At first, people said it was worth $4 million, but it turns out it’s actually between $3 million and $3.2 million.

That makes Beck the second-highest paid college football player, right behind Duke QB Darian Mensah. His NIL success sort of shows just how huge these deals have gotten in college sports.

Breakdown of Beck’s NIL Earnings

According to reports, Beck’s pulled in $10 million over the last 12 months from brand deals and Miami’s NIL collective, Canes Connection.

His current NIL deal is valued between $3 million and $3.2 million.

Looking Ahead: Beck’s Future Prospects

As Beck keeps playing like this, you have to wonder how far he can go. He’s 23 now and turns 24 in November, but his story’s not even close to finished.

He’s already in the Heisman conversation, and if he keeps leading Miami like this, who knows what’s next?
