World of Hyatt to provide gift cards to help families of every University of Tennessee football player with hotel rooms for this season’s bowl game
World of Hyatt will be one of the first hotel brands to announce a name, image and likeness “NIL” deal through its new agreement with University of Tennessee football star Jalin Hyatt, who recently broke the single-season Tennessee receiving touchdown record and is a finalist for the Biletnikoff Award, given to the college football season’s outstanding FBS receiver.
As part of the collaboration, World of Hyatt will provide gift cards to help each of Jalin’s teammates’ families with hotel rooms for the upcoming bowl game in Miami, Florida. World of Hyatt will also help Jalin celebrate a record-breaking season by providing him the opportunity to visit Hyatt properties once the season wraps.
“We have been admiring Jalin’s talent and want him to experience the Hyatt way of travel as well as help the families of every teammate have a place to stay at the bowl game, so they feel cared for as they cheer their loved ones on from the sidelines,” said Mark Vondrasek, chief commercial officer, Hyatt. “World of Hyatt is excited to team up with an exceptional student athlete, and we look forward to the upcoming bowl game!”
“This Hyatt-Hyatt collaboration is more than a natural fit and it brings us all together when it really matters,” said Jalin Hyatt, wide receiver for The University of Tennessee Volunteers. “The World of Hyatt team gave me the ability to create a deal that benefited my teammates and our families. That’s real, as those are the people I care about the most. Knowing my teammates’ families will all have help to be at the game, and that they are being cared for on the road is amazing.”
