Getting your first NIL check is exciting—but don't let tax season catch you by surprise.
Many NIL athletes are considered self-employed, which means taxes usually aren't withheld from their payments. The good news? With the right planning, you may also be able to deduct legitimate business expenses and reduce what you owe.
The goal isn't just to earn more—it's to keep more and start building wealth from day one.
