It has been almost a decade since there’s been a college football video game due to the lawsuits of players’ name, image and likeness (NIL) in the 2014 Electronic Arts (EA) College Football Game.
There is speculation that the game may impact an athlete’s NIL worth, as the compensation is $500.
NIL is a privilege that allows a college athlete to monetize off of their name, image, and likeness. Before this legislation under the National Collegiate Athletics Association (NCAA) policy, athletes were prohibited from using NIL to generate revenue.
