NIL vs. Pay-for-Play: What’s the Difference?

NIL means athletes can sign endorsement deals with brands - think Uber Eats, Adidas, or Reebok. Pay-for-play, on the other hand, is essentially receiving money directly from your school just for playing your sport.

But here’s the catch: most “NIL” deals in college are just pay-for-play in disguise, without the security, benefits, or stability that come with professional contracts.
