Princeton WR AJ Barber, Tiki's son, enters transfer portal
Barber was a full-time starter last season and appeared in all 30 games during three seasons with the Tigers.
He caught 109 passes for 1,264 yards and six touchdowns, never finishing lower than third on the team in receiving yards.
Barber also played on special teams as a returner on kicks and punts.
The Old Greenwich, Conn., native is the son of former New York Giants star running back Tiki Barber.
A second-round pick out of Virginia, Tiki Barber spent all 10 of his NFL seasons with the Giants, becoming the team's all-time leading rusher. He scored 67 touchdowns and is one of three players in NFL history to accumulate 10,000 rushing yards and 5,000 receiving yards.

About 100 players, two dozen club employees face fines for selling Super Bowl tickets
NEW YORK, July 25 (Reuters) - About 100 NFL players and two dozen employees from several teams face fines for selling this year's Super Bowl tickets for more than face value, a source told Reuters on Friday, activity that violated a long-standing league policy. Players will be fined 1.5 times the face value of the ticket they sold while club employees will be fined twice the amount. ESPN first broke the news on the fines. League and team employees, including players, are prohibited from selling NFL game tickets acquired from their employer for more than face value or more than they paid. NFL players have an opportunity to buy two Super Bowl tickets at face value. None of the individuals involved or their teams were identified. In the 2025 contest, when the Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Kansas City Chiefs, the most expensive tickets at the New Orleans' Superdome had a face value of about $7,500 and were priced as high as $56,770 on the resale market . In a memo seen by Reuters, the league's head of compliance told clubs the department was in the process of concluding its investigation into the matter. "The investigation has revealed that club employees and players sold their tickets to a small number of 'bundlers' who were working with a ticket reseller to sell the Super Bowl tickets above face value," the document read. "Those that worked to 'bundle' the tickets, or otherwise had a greater role, will face increased penalties." The NFL will enhance its mandatory compliance training ahead of the Super Bowl in 2026, which will be held at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, according to the memo. Super Bowl tickets are among the most coveted in all of North American professional sport, with fans routinely shelling out thousands of dollars to attend the NFL's championship game that is watched religiously by millions across the U.S.

NFL fines 100 players for Super Bowl ticket scalping
The NFL has fined 100 players and two dozen club officials for selling Super Bowl tickets above face value, according to reports. While players and officials are allowed to sell tickets at face value, they are banned from doing so at inflated prices. The face value price for Super Bowl tickets for the clash between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles, which included a half-time performance by Kendrick Lamar, earlier this year, varied between $950 and $7,500 each. However, the average resale price hit $10,417 on ticketing websites. The minimum salary for a 'rookie' NFL player is understood to be around $750,000 a year. But once established, their annual pay packet can hit $5m, with superstars – often quarterbacks – frequently earning twice as much. Details of the clandestine transactions followed an investigation by the NFL. 'The investigation has revealed that club employees and players sold their tickets to a small number of 'bundlers' who were working with a ticket reseller to sell the Super Bowl tickets above face value,' Sabrina Perel, the head of compliance at the NFL, wrote in a memo. Players who touted tickets will be fined one and a half times the face value of the ticket and banned from buying any for the 2026 Super Bowl, unless their team is competing. Officials will be fined double the face value of the tickets. However, the move merely scratches the surface of a flourishing industry in reselling tickets to major sporting and entertainment events. Resell market worth $3.4bn According to industry estimates, the resale market, which is legal in the US, was worth $3.4bn last year. The practice is controversial with some companies using 'bots' – computerised programmes – to hoover up thousands of tickets at a time as soon as they go on sale, before putting them back on the market at vastly inflated prices. To the fury of President Donald Trump, previous attempts to curb the use of bots have failed, leaving fans having to pay as much as 70 times the face value of a ticket. In March, Mr Trump signed an executive order to protect fans from ticket touting and crack down on what he described as 'unscrupulous middle-men who impose egregious fees on fans with no benefit to artists'.

Report: More than 100 players face fines for re-selling SB tickets
July 25 - At least 100 players, as well as coaches and other team personnel from approximately half the teams in the NFL, allegedly sold their Super Bowl tickets for above face-value in violation of league policies, ESPN reported Friday. According to a memo sent to all 32 NFL teams and reviewed by ESPN, an investigation by the league found that some "club employees and players sold their tickets to a small number of 'bundlers' who were working with a ticket reseller to sell the Super Bowl tickets above face value." Players violating the agreement between the league and the NFL Players Association around the re-sale of Super Bowl tickets are reportedly subject to penalties including fines of 1 1/2 times the face value of the tickets. Other team employees who violated the policy will reportedly be fined two times the face value of the tickets. The memo stated that those found to have bundled tickets would face steeper fines, according to Sports Illustrated. Face value of tickets to February's Super Bowl LIX between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs reportedly ranged from $950 to $7,500, while prices on secondary sites ranged from $2,588 to nearly $3,500 on the low end to over $10,000, with the average price of a Super Bowl ticket being $8,076 in the final weeks leading up to the game, according to CBS. Players could be suspended if they refuse to pay the fines, per ESPN. Some players have reportedly already paid the fines to avoid missing playing time. In addition to fines, players breaking the rule will reportedly also lose the right to their allotted tickets to the next two Super Bowls. No specific players, coaches or teams who violated the policy were identified in the report by ESPN. --Field Level Media
