Washington offensive line lands NIL deal with Cedric the Entertainer, Anthony Anderson
Washington brought home the Joe Moore Award this season for the best offensive line in football.
Now, the Huskies’ big guys up front are scoring something even better — an NIL deal with a barbecue brand. Offensive linemen love barbecue, don’t they?
In a video shared on social media Friday by the Huskies’ social team, Cedric the Entertainer and Anthony Anderson — partners behind the AC Barbeque lifestyle brand — offered the Joe Moore Award winners the opportunity to travel to Los Angeles, meet with the two Hollywood celebrities, and take part in a photoshoot.

Washington’s offensive line gave up just 11 sacks in 13 games this season, paving the way for a passing attack that led the FBS. The Huskies enter the College Football Playoff ranked fourth in sacks allowed and were ranked as the fifth-best pass-blocking team in the country by Pro Football Focus.
UW will face Texas in the CFP semifinal at the Sugar Bowl on Monday (5:45 p.m. PT, ESPN).
