Nobody has enjoyed a hotter start to the college football season than Jameis Winston. Now, at least one Florida State fan is turning a profit on his success.

In the last week, a Seminoles fan has sold more than 100 “Chosen One” T-shirts that depict Winston as Jesus, according to TMZ. The shirts are selling for $20 each and seem to be gaining some underground popularity, which will only grow if the freshman quarterback’s hot streak continues.

With potential NCAA rules violations in mind, Florida State has sent a cease and desist letter to the fan demanding that he stop selling the shirts, according to the report. The school could find themselves in trouble over the shirts if the NCAA deems that they didn’t do enough to try and prevent the fan from profiting off of a player.

Winston, 19, has completed 40 of 45 passes for 570 yards with six touchdowns and just one interception in two wins for the ‘Noles this season.

Check out a photo of the shirt below.
