Big Ten to Ban NFL Roster Players

The Big Ten Conference is reportedly implementing a rule that would ban players who have appeared on NFL rosters or participated in professional leagues from returning to play college football. This move comes after several players who participated in the NFL this summer sought to return to college programs. mwafrika.life

The Southeastern Conference has also taken a firm stance on the issue, releasing a statement saying 'college athletes, not former professional athletes, have been at the heart of the Southeastern Conference.' Both conferences support the Protect College Sports Act, a bipartisan federal bill designed to establish guardrails regarding name, image and likeness and college eligibility.
