SB 2683 Mississippi Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Student-athlete agency contracts; amend provisions related to and create private cause of action.

SB 2683 would have prohibited exclusivity clauses in student-athlete agency contracts that extend beyond a student's athletic eligibility period. It required contracts over $600 to be reviewed by a school's compliance department before signing, mandated clear warnings about eligibility risks, and allowed student-athletes to cancel contracts within 14 days. The bill also created a legal cause of action for student-athletes who were coerced, defrauded, or misled into signing such contracts, enabling them to seek damages in court. This legislation directly affected Mississippi student-athletes and their interactions with athlete agents, but it died in committee on February 3, 2026, and did not become law.
