Relief for CFB Athletes as Mississippi Passes a Bill to Make NIL Earnings Non-Taxable

The Mississippi House of Representatives passed a bill to exempt NIL earnings from state income tax, offering relief to in-state athletes. Mississippi currently imposes a 4 percent tax on income over $10,000. Florida, Tennessee, and Texas have no state income tax, while Arkansas exempted NIL earnings in 2025. The bill now heads to the Mississippi Senate and would require the governor’s signature to become law.
