I thought anthletes are basically amateurs and only a few get famous enough to have sponsorship deals?

    College athletes yes (historically, this is significantly less true now)

    But professional athletes, assuming the name it to the big leagues are generally very well paid even for random guys you don't know. Star athletes make millions/tens of millions per season
