NFL prospects that signed with Adidas at the NFL combine are being rewarded with Adidas’ new Yeezy shoe by Kanye West.

Adidas was planning to give the fastest players to sign with them and run a 40-yard dash a slick Porsche 911 with a tiger on the side, yes a tiger, but they can’t do that anymore because it infringes upon the NFL’s deal with General Motors.

Instead, they’re getting $100,000 and Yeezy 750 Boost shoes that sold out on Feb. 16.

The shoes were orginally $350, but after Adidas’ 9,000 pairs quickly sold out, they’re selling for well over $1,000 on sites like eBay.

Notable players that have signed with Adidas so far include: former Nebraska running back Ameer Abdullah, who is projected to be a second round pick; former UCLA quarterback Brett Hundley, who is projected to be a second round pick; former Kansas State wide receiver Tyler Lockett, who is projected a three round pick; former Missouri wide receiver Dorial Green-Beckham, who is projected to be a first round selection; and former Indiana running back Tevin Coleman, projected to be a second round pick.

Players are also receiving Adidas 5-star 4.0 Uncaged football cleats.

Adidas clearly has some high-profile clients already, we’ll keep you updated on who wins the $100,000 grand from the sporting company.
