Dae’Quan Wright and Zxavian Harris weigh legal options after LSU roster move
Summary

LSU has completed its 105-man roster, effectively ending the possibility of signing Dae’Quan Wright and Zxavian Harris. The two players, who were recently waived by NFL teams, had previously been under consideration for roster spots. Their legal representatives have confirmed that Wright and Harris are now exploring legal options regarding their status. This potential litigation follows attempts by the NCAA and SEC to block athletes who have left for the NFL from returning to college competition. While previous attempts by those governing bodies to enforce the ban have faced judicial pushback, the status of such athletes remains a point of contention within collegiate sports. It is currently unclear if the potential legal action will target LSU for its roster decision or the NCAA and SEC for the regulations themselves.
