Shares of apparel companies are trading higher, possibly amid overall market strength after President Trump delayed 50% EU tariffs to July.

Retailer DICK's Sporting Goods (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DKS#NYSE">DKS</a>) could provide more details of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45435748/dicks-sporting-goods-to-acquire-foot-locker-at-66-premium">its planned acquisition</a> of Foot Locker, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FL#NYSE">FL</a>) when the company reports first-quarter financial results before<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings"> market open Wednesday.</a>
Here are the analyst estimates, what analysts are saying after the acquisition was announced and key items to watch.
Earning Estimates: Analysts expect Dick's Sporting Goods to report first-quarter revenue of $3.59 billion, up from $3.02 billion in last year's first quarter, according to data<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/register?utm_adType=bzprocontent&amp;utm_campaign=14daytrial&amp;utm_ad=0527"> from Benzinga Pro.</a>
The company has beaten analyst estimates for revenue in six straight quarters and in nine of the past 10 quarters overall.
Analysts expect the company to report first-quarter earnings per share of $4.34, up from $3.30 in last year's first quarter. The company has beaten analyst estimates for earnings per share in six straight quarters and in nine of the past 10 quarters overall.

What Analysts Are Saying: Analysts lowered their price target on Dick's Sporting Goods stock after the Foot Locker <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45476123/analyst-sees-long-term-gain-for-dicks-with-foot-locker-despite-investor-skepticism">acquisition was announced.</a>
Telsey analyst Joseph Feldman said the retailer could see near-term pressure as investors decipher the deal rationale and execution risks.
Feldman maintained an Outperform rating, while lowering the price target from $250 to $220.
The analyst said investors appear skeptical of the deal, with Dick's already having a strong presence in the U.S. sporting goods sector.
Feldman said Foot Locker is a mall-based retailer that has structural challenges and is heavily reliant on Nike Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>), which makes up around 60% of sales.
While Feldman is cautious in the short term, the analyst sees the potential to unlock value with the acquisition and create a more dominant retailer in the sporting goods sector.
Here are other recent<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/DKS/analyst-ratings"> analyst ratings on</a> Dick's Sporting Goods and their price targets:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>DA Davidson: Maintained Buy rating with $273 price target</li>
<li>Loop Capital: Maintained Hold rating, lowered price target from $195 to $180</li>
<li>Baird: Maintained Neutral rating, lowered price target from $230 to $185</li>
<li>Barclays: Maintained Overweight rating, lowered price target from $223 to $217</li>
</ul>
Key Items to Watch: Along with the Foot Locker acquisition being the talk of the town, the other big topic analyst and investors will likely be watching will be tariffs.
Tariffs have taken center stage for many companies when they report financial results and share updated guidance, especially those in the retail sector, like Dick's Sporting Goods.
The company will likely highlight the impact tariffs could have on upcoming quarters and what steps are being taken to mitigate risk.
The first-quarter results will be important as they come after a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44246625/dicks-sporting-beats-q4-earnings-stock-falls-amid-soft-outlook">strong fourth quarter </a>that saw the company's largest sales quarter in company history and strong comparable sales growth of 6.4%.
Dick's also announced a new five-year share buyback program of up to $3 billion back in March. Details of this buyback or an increased commitment level could create new optimism and offset concerns from the acquisition and tariffs.
Another area to watch could be Dick's increased interest in trading cards, which comes after winning a $1.1 million auction for a rare one-of-one Paul Skenes baseball card. The company recently displayed the card at its House of Sport store in Pennsylvania, as reported by <a href="https://www.cllct.com/sports-collectibles/sports-cards/dick-s-sporting-goods-launches-paul-skenes-debut-patch-display-in-new-collectors-shop">Cllct</a>.
The company has plans to boost its trading cards and memorabilia selections at House of Sport stores and could use this card as a centerpiece to travel around to other locations. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/go/public-com-bonds" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"></a>
DKS Price Action: Dick's Sporting Goods stock is up 3.92% to $173.81 on Tuesday versus a 52-week trading range of $166.37 to $254.60. The stock is down about 24% year-to-date in 2025.

Dick's Sporting Goods Q1 Preview: All Eyes On Foot Locker Deal, Tariff Impact

Nike's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) short percent of float has fallen 10.65% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 45.04 million shares sold short, which is 4.78% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.67 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Nike Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1748271624_0_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Nike has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Nike's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Nike's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 9.69%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Unitedhealth, Snowflake, Navitas, Nike, And Target: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

Nike Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) shares are trading higher in Wednesday&#8217;s after-hours session following a report that the company will sell on Amazon.com (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) for the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45512822/nike-announces-layoffs-in-tech-division-shifts-focus-to-third-party-vendors">first time in six years</a>.
What Happened: According to a <a href="https://www.theinformation.com/articles/nike-sell-amazon-first-time-since-2019">report</a> from The Information, Amazon will start selling Nike products on its e-commerce platform for the first time since 2019. 
The two companies previously worked together before Nike decided to stop selling on Amazon.com, opting to sell direct to customers through its own website. An Amazon spokesperson reportedly confirmed that Amazon will start selling Nike products again with supplies coming directly from Nike. 
A separate report from <a href="https://frontofficesports.com/nike-raising-prices-on-some-products/">Front Office Sports</a> indicates that Nike also plans to raise prices on some of its products. The price increases will reportedly impact shoe and apparel products above $100. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy NKE Stock</h3>
By now, you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Nike &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy &#8220;fractional shares,&#8221; which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to &#8220;go short&#8221; a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> 
Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
NKE Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/NKE">Nike shares</a> are down about 20% year-to-date. The stock got a lift from the Amazon announcement, last up 2.39% in after-hours, trading at $61.40 at the time of publication, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

RBC Capital Maintains Sector Perform on Nike, Lowers Price Target to $65

Sportswear behemoth&nbsp;Nike Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) has disclosed plans to lay off&nbsp;employees in its technology division,&nbsp;opting to outsource some of this work to third-party vendors.
What Happened: Nike is downsizing its technology workforce. The company representative confirmed to Reuters that some of this work will be outsourced to third-party vendors. The announcement was made last week.
The move follows Nike&#8217;s forecast of a larger-than-expected decline in fourth-quarter revenue. The company is adopting a cautious strategy to recapture consumer interest, which has been drifting towards trendier competitors.
In May, Nike CEO&nbsp;Elliott Hill&nbsp;initiated several changes in&nbsp;the senior leadership team. Hill, who took over as CEO in October, is leading a turnaround for the company, which has been struggling to produce new and innovative footwear.

Why It Matters:&nbsp;This decision comes amid a series of strategic changes at Nike. In February, Jeffries analyst Randal Konik expressed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43933841/nike-shares-set-for-a-turnaround-top-analyst-calls-for-aggressive-buy-amid-new-ceos-turnaround-plan">optimism </a>about Hill's strategic plans for the company, including rejuvenating wholesale partnerships and launching new products.
However, by March, BofA Securities analyst Lorraine Hutchinson noted that while Nike was taking swift action to adjust the market and clear out old inventory, the company was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44399915/nike-faces-margin-pressure-but-optimistic-on-product-reset-says-analyst">facing </a>margin pressure. Despite a leadership shakeup in May aimed at reinvigorating growth, Wall Street remained <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45237060/despite-nikes-executive-overhaul-ongoing-challenges-persist-says-analyst">cautious</a>. Telsey Advisory Group analyst Cristina Fernandez reiterated a Market Perform rating on Nike&#8217;s shares and lowered the price forecast from $80 to $70.
The layoffs in the tech division and the shift to third-party vendors are part of Nike&#8217;s ongoing efforts to navigate these challenges and reposition itself in the market.
Benzinga's Edge Rankings place Nike in the 21st percentile for quality and the 23rd percentile for growth, reflecting its weaker performance in both areas. Check the detailed report <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NKE">here</a>. 
On Monday, the stock fell 1.63% to close at $62.08. On a year-to-date basis, it declined 15.74%.

Nike Lays Off Tech Workers, Shifts Focus To Outsourcing Amid Sales Slump

Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy is no stranger to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports-betting/24/06/39382135/portnoy-wins-big-with-boston-celtics-nba-championship-rapper-drake-loses-500k-and-could-lo">placing large wagers </a>on top sports outcomes and he made sure to get in on the action for the first Indiana Fever WNBA game of the 2025 season as a Caitlin Clark fan.
Portnoy's winnings were large and might illustrate the gap between WNBA and NBA salaries once again.
What Happened: The Fever were dominant in their first game of the season beating the Chicago Sky 93-58, a win that might have been heavily bet <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports-betting/24/04/38276225/caitlin-clark-is-no-1-pick-in-wnba-draft-media-stocks-sportsbooks-to-watch-as-iowa-star-go">on at sportsbooks </a>with Clark and Angel Reese featured, two former college basketball stars now in their second years in the WNBA.
Clark finished the game with 20 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists, marking her third career triple double, a feat that occurs when a player has 10 or more in three different stat categories.
Portnoy <a href="https://x.com/stoolpresidente/status/1923859511560847516">predicted </a>Clark's triple double before the game, placing a $25,000 wager with DraftKings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DKNG#NASDAQ">DKNG</a>), a sportsbook he is partnered.
With the triple double, Portnoy's bet at odds of +1,300 paid out a total of $350,000 for a $325,000 profit.
The huge win isn't the largest by Portnoy and one of many examples of his large bets on sports contests.
The profit amount quickly took another direction on social media with people comparing the winnings to the WNBA salary of Clark and how it <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/22/08/28390094/this-lebron-james-stat-could-explain-why-brittney-griner-was-playing-in-russia">stacks up against the NBA. </a>
Clark, the first overall pick of the 2024 WNBA draft, had a salary of $76,535 in her rookie season and is set to make $78,066 in her second season. She will be paid $85,873 and $97,583 for the 2026 and 2027 seasons, respectively.
Clark's four-year rookie contract is worth $338,056. This means that Portnoy's profit on one Clark bet from her first 2025 game made him almost as much as the WNBA will pay Clark for her first four seasons in the league.
For comparison, the number one overall NBA pick in the 2024 draft Zaccharie Risacher earned a four-year $57 million contract.
While most WNBA players will earn less than NBA players, Clark will be one of the top earners thanks to endorsement deals. As <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports/24/04/38409019/caitlin-clark-nears-28m-nike-endorsement-sneaker-deal-45-times-her-wnba-salary">Benzinga previously reported,</a> Clark landed a $28 million eight-year deal with Nike Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>). That deal pays out over 45x the first-year salary for Clark.
According to <a href="https://www.sportico.com/personalities/athletes/2024/caitlin-clark-wnba-salary-pay-endorsement-earnings-1234819038/">Sportico</a>, Clark is one of the highest-paid female athletes with $11 million in earnings from endorsements. Along with Nike, Clark as deals with the likes of Gatorade, State Farm, Wilson, Xfinity and Panini.

What's Next: Expectations are high for the Indiana Fever and Clark in the 2025 season. The team ranks second in betting odds to win the WNBA championship with odds of +340, trailing only the defending champion New York Liberty at +225 according to sportsbook DraftKings. 
Clark is the favorite to win the WNBA MVP at odds of +165, ranking ahead of last year's runner-up Napheesa Collier (+250) and last year's winner A'ja Wilson (+275).
Portnoy said the Fever are the team to beat and Clark could go on to win the MVP championship.
"Fever look great. Caitlin Clark looks like she's gonna be the MVP of the league."
Betting $100 on the Fever to win the WNBA Championship will pay out a profit of $340 if Portnoy is right. Betting $100 on Clark to win MVP would pay out a profit of $165.

'Nike Lays Off Some Workers in Shakeup of Technology Division'- Bloomberg

Editor&#8217;s Note: This article has been updated to reflect that Pershing Square converted its Nike stock into call options, maintaining exposure
Bill Ackman could have a new love for the automotive sector with a new investment made in the first quarter and an added position to a stake from the fourth quarter of 2024 that was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44878275/billionare-investor-bill-ackman-posts-hertz-investment-thesis-proposes-av-fleet-partnership-with-uber">revealed in April.</a>
Here's a look at Ackman's investment holdings in Pershing Square as of March 31.
First Quarter Changes: Ackman and Pershing Square unveiled a new stake in Uber Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) in the first quarter with a position of more than 30 million shares. The stake is now the largest holding the Pershing Square portfolio and comes with the investor making several recent moves to his investment strategy.
Ackman increased his stake in Hertz Global Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HTZ#NASDAQ">HTZ</a>) in the first quarter with the <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1336528/000117266125002315/0001172661-25-002315-index.html">filing </a>showing an 18% increase.
Ackman's stake in Hertz was unveiled via a tweet and an updated SEC filing in April. A 12.7 million share purchase was originally kept from the fourth-quarter holdings document due to a request for confidentiality.
Here were the other increased stakes in the quarter:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Brookfield Corporation: +18%</li>
<li>Alphabet Inc Class A (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>): +11%</li>
</ul>
Pershing Square lowered its investments in the following stocks in the first quarter:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Hilton Worldwide Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HLT#NYSE">HLT</a>): -45%</li>
<li>Google Class C (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>): -16%</li>
<li>Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMG#NYSE">CMG</a>): -13%</li>
<li>Canadian Pacific (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CP#NYSE">CP</a>): decreased by less than 1%</li>
</ul>
One notable move in the quarter was Pershing Square&#8217;s conversion of its 18.8 million Nike shares into over-the-counter call options, maintaining a similar economic exposure.

Ackman's Top Holdings: The newest 13F filing shows 11 stocks owned by Ackman and Pershing Square. Here are the current holdings and their percentage of the investment fund:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Uber: 19%</li>
<li>Brookfield: 18%</li>
<li>Restaurant Brands International (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QSR#NYSE">QSR</a>): 13%</li>
<li>Howard Hughes Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HHH#NYSE">HHH</a>): 12%</li>
<li>Chipotle: 9.1%</li>
<li>Canadian Pacific: 8.7%</li>
<li>Alphabet Class C: 8.3%</li>
<li>Alphabet Class A: 5.8%</li>
<li>Hilton: 5.7%</li>
<li>Seaport Entertainment Group (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SEG#NYSE">SEG</a>): 0.9%</li>
<li>Hertz: 0.5%</li>
</ul>
The latest 13F filing comes as Ackman is trying to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45401638/howard-hughes-rises-nearly-3-in-pre-market-as-bill-ackman-exits-from-universal-music-groups-board-to-prioritize-new-investments">buy control of </a>Howard Hughes and turn it into a diversified holding company to copy the conglomerate style of legendary investor Warren Buffett.
The Pershing Square 13F could look significantly different next quarter.

Apparel company Under Armour (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAA#NYSE">UAA</a>)(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UA#NYSE">UA</a>) could highlight how the latest China tariff news could be good news when the company reports fourth-quarter financial results before <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">market open Tuesday.</a>
Earnings Estimates: Analysts expect Under Armour to report fourth-quarter revenue of $1.16 billion, down from $1.33 billion in last year's fourth quarter, according to data<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/register?utm_adType=bzprocontent&amp;utm_campaign=14daytrial&amp;utm_ad=0512"> from Benzinga Pro.</a>

 What Analysts Are Saying: Demand and guidance are two key areas in Under Armour's quarterly results that Telsey Advisory Group analyst Cristina Fernandez <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/price-target/25/05/45262278/under-armour-faces-tough-road-ahead-says-analyst">will be watching.</a>
The analyst reiterated a Market Perform rating and lowered the price target from $10 to $7 ahead of the quarterly results.
Fernandez said she will be watching to see how fiscal 2026 is shaping up and how consumers are responding to new product offerings.
The analyst also said Under Armour needs to talk about tariffs. The company previously said it gets only 3% of items from China, but is exposed to other Asian countries with tariffs.
For Fernandez to become more bullish on the stock, she said it would take details on the company's distribution strategies and more signs of revenue growth.
Freedom Capital Markets Chief Global Strategist Jay Woods offers a pun on the apparel stock ahead of quarterly financial results.
"For long-term shareholders of Under Armour, they would be better off hiding out, literally, under armor than trying to make money by owning the stock," Woods said in a weekly <a href="https://jaywoods.substack.com/">newsletter</a>.
Woods said the all-time high for the stock coincided with the height of the Golden State Warriors and Stephen Curry winning championships.
"Coming into earnings the company is trading just above all-time lows and is looking for a new catalyst to turn things around."
Woods said the good news is there is a "near-term opportunity to watch."
The market strategist highlighted technicals for the stock and the 20-day moving average being a point that has led to short-lived rallies. Woods said upward momentum could lead to a larger rally.
"It's not a pretty picture, but risk/reward metrics for a short-term trade and potential near-term bottom look possible."
Here are other recent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/UAA/analyst-ratings">analyst ratings on Under Armour </a>and their price targets:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>UBS: Maintained Buy rating, raised price target from $7 to $8</li>
<li>Wells Fargo: Maintained Equal-Weight rating, lowered price target from $7 to $4</li>
<li>Citigroup: Maintained Neutral rating, lowered price target from $8 to $6</li>
</ul>
Key Items to Watch: Under Armour's quarterly results come in between quarterly reports from rival Nike Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>).
Nike <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44430536/bill-ackman-backed-nike-reports-worst-footwear-revenue-in-more-than-a-decade-takes-action-to-continue-liquidating-inventory-amid-grim-outlook">reported </a>a 12% year-over-year decline for footwear revenue, it's largest revenue decline on a year-over-year basis for the segment in more than a decade.
Under Armour reported footwear sales declined 9% year-over-year in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43527065/sportswear-company-under-armour-stocks-surge-on-upbeat-outlook">the third quarter</a>. Analysts and investors will be closely monitoring this category to see how the company's performance stacks up against Nike and to hear management's insights on new products, competition and market share.
International could be another key area to watch. Under Armour saw international revenue decline 1% year-over-year in the third quarter.
Tariffs will be a major talking point for analysts. Under Armour's report will come days after the United States and China agreed to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45347089/wall-street-rips-higher-as-tariff-truce-halts-us-china-economic-escalation">reduction in tariffs </a>on goods imported to each country. The timing of the trade deal could play into Under Armour's favor, with the company now needing to account for only a smaller tariff amount if factoring this into guidance or commentary.
While many know that NBA star Steph Curry has a deal with Under Armour, the company continues to sign other athletes to endorsements. The company's latest deals include several 2025 NFL Draft Picks, <a href="https://about.underarmour.com/en-us/stories/2025/04/under-armour-signs-next-wave-of-football-elite-ahead-of-2025-nfl.html#:~:text=of%20the%20game.-,Cam%20Ward%2C%20Luther%20Burden%20III%2C%20Nick%20Emmanwori%2C%20Matthew%20Golden,2025%20NFL%20Draft%20and%20beyond.">including </a>first overall pick Cam Ward.
Expected to be the starting quarterback for the 2025 NFL season, Ward could become a superstar in the league and provide a boost to Under Armour.
"Joining Under Armour is more than just a sponsorship deal. It's a partnership," Ward said.
UAA Price Action: Under Armour stock was up 6% to $6.20 on Monday versus a 52-week trading range of $4.78 to $11.89. Under Armour stock is down 24.3% year-to-date in 2025, while shares are down around 10% in the last year.
