T.J. Harden, recently waived by the Seattle Seahawks, intends to enter the NCAA transfer portal. Harden, who previously played for SMU and UCLA, seeks another college football opportunity after a Louisiana court ruling potentially changes eligibility rules for players. This ruling follows lawsuits aimed at allowing former college athletes who completed four seasons to gain a fifth year. Harden's case may set a precedent for others in similar situations, including Seahawks running back Anthony Hankerson, who is also affected by the ruling.
