Oklahoma State is putting a QR code on the back of player helmets to give to NIL collective.

https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/40929681...

Made me wonder if there is/would be a way to give directly to players for great plays. I can imagine setting aside $50/$100 every game I'm watching on TV at home and as a player makes a great play (block, tackle, pass deflection, etc) I could give that player an allotted amount. My $5 or $10 for a good play may not be a gamechanger, but if ten or so people were doing that, it would be a fun little chunk of change for a player at the end of a game. Is there any place doing something similar?

As I understand it, which to be honest I'm not the most well versed in NIL rules and regulations, but NIL allows the player to be paid by 3rd parties as a result of their performance on the field and/or their name recognition. It doesn't allow fans to pay players directly in an official capacity like you're describing.

Fans aren�t, the QR goes to the collective, which then goes to that kid! Got to love smart lawyers.

Half the time I can't get my phone to properly scan a QR on the scoreboard in Peden. How are fans actually going to scan the QR on a helmet on the field?
