Former Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor has filed a class-action lawsuit in the Southern District of Ohio Eastern Division, naming his former school, the NCAA and the Big Ten as defendants and seeking damages after being denied compensation from NIL during his time as a student-athlete.

Ralph Russo of The Athletic provided details from the lawsuit.

"For many years and continuing to the present, the Defendants have systematically and intentionally misappropriated the publicity rights and NIL of the Plaintiffs and those similarly situated and in doing so have reaped millions, and perhaps billions, of dollars from the Plaintiffs and the class," the lawsuit stated.
