UNC senior linebacker Cedric Gray has made a name for himself for his defensive coverage. But what about his insurance coverage?

Gray starred in a new commercial for All About Insurance, in which he works with co-owner and vice president Nick Vitali in training up the staff. Gray’s hijinks include running the team through footwork drills, giving motivational speeches, and showing off his weightlifting skills with tape dispensers and staplers.

Check out the full ad below:

“We had a great time working with Cedric,” Vitali said. “We worked with Cedric earlier this year on a radio spot but is the first video we’ve done with Ced and he was awesome to work with.”

The ad will begin airing locally this weekend on WRAL, Spectrum, Hulu and YouTube TV.

When he’s not handling insurance duties, Gray has become one of Carolina’s top defenders. After being named first team All-ACC and second team All-America in 2022, Gray has followed that up with another strong season. He currently leads the team with 85 total tackles.

This isn’t the first time All About Insurance has worked with a UNC football player. Last season, the company debuted an ad featuring former Tar Heel cornerback Storm Duck.

Editor’s Note: All About Insurance is an advertising partner with 97.9 The Hill and Mark Vitali is a co-owner of the Chapel Hill Media Group, 97.9 The Hill’s parent company.
