NFL GM Calls College Football Chaos 'Ridiculous'
2 Sep
Summary
- NFL GM Nick Caserio deems college football's current situation 'ridiculous'.
- He stated the chaos doesn't significantly impact NFL team scouting or training camp.
- Players returning to college cannot be signed by NFL teams during the 2026 season.
Texans General Manager Nick Caserio has voiced strong criticism regarding the current state of college football, calling the situation "ridiculous." He emphasized that despite the significant upheaval, these rule changes do not substantially impact the NFL's day-to-day operations, such as training camp preparations or player evaluations.
Caserio's remarks highlight that the NFL will continue to scout college athletes using their established processes, regardless of eligibility shifts. He pointed out that the core of these problems traces back to the NCAA's long-standing refusal to compensate players, leading to current reactions from athletes seeking fair treatment. A key consequence is that any player choosing to return to college football will be ineligible for NFL signing during the 2026 season.
