Marcus Mariota has been officially accepted to the doors of the fictional "Heisman House" on Tuesday. The Tennessee Titans' quarterback will be joining a dozen other outstanding college football players being sponsored by Nissan.
Mariota is a rookie quarterback player who won the 2014 Heisman Trophy award.
The rookie quarterback received the key to the front door of the fictitious house and to an actual 2015 Nissan Armada SUV at the Japanese automaker's North America headquarters located in Franklin, the Business Wire reported.
"Heisman House" campaign is a series of shows that will be broadcasted all through the upcoming college football season, where Mariota will be joined by 13 other previous winners of the Heisman Trophy. The first of a series for the 21-year-old will be aired on Sept. 3.
Nissan, the sponsor, allows college football fans to vote online for their favorite candidates, a method by which Mariota was chosen in 2014. He garnered 400,000 votes.
In 2006, Nissan started its relationship with the Heisman Trophy Trust as its premier partner. The Japanese multinational automobile manufacturer is involved with the trust's charitable work and activities that give service to those disadvantaged youths of today.
Mariota recently signed a contract with the Tennessee Titans. He also received the second highest Heisman vote of all time, with 90.9 percent and previously led the Oregon Ducks football team to the National Championship game against Ohio's Buckeyes.
The second player selected in the 2015 NFL draft, Mariota garnered a career record of 36-5 during his college football stint, the Nashville Post shared.
