A new college football video game is coming this summer, and players will receive a substantial raise for letting EA Sports use their likeness.

As reported by The Athletic, EA sent emails to players on Tuesday that announced an increase in name, image and likeness (NIL) payments. Players will now receive $1,500 if they agree to allow their likeness to be used in EA College Football 26. This is more than double the $600 offered last year.

College football players are reportedly getting a raise for appearing in EA Sports' next video game. The name, image and likeness payments will increase from $600 to $1,500 for Football Bowl Subdivision players who are included in the upcoming "College Football 26" release,
