Colts GM Chris Ballard Slams NFL Players Going Back to College: ‘The Dumbest Thing I’ve Ever Heard’
The NCAA’s new five-for-five eligibility model has sparked controversy, impacting NFL rosters as many players seek a fifth year of college eligibility. Indianapolis Colts GM Chris Ballard criticized the idea of players returning to college after training with NFL teams, calling it “the stupidest” proposal. Clemson coach Dabo Swinney echoed similar sentiments, deeming the situation “embarrassing.” While some coaches, like LSU’s Lane Kiffin, are interested in adding former NFL players to their rosters, the NFL plans to restrict any returning college players from signing until after 2026. Furthermore, major conferences have quickly moved to ban these players from returning, although legal challenges loom.
