Eight players with restraining order enter transfer portal

The NCAA transfer portal reopened for athletes granted a temporary restraining order Wednesday to return to college for a fifth year of eligibility.

Wright is currently listed on the Browns' roster. Harden played in the Seahawks' preseason opener against the Cowboys before he was cut Monday. Harris was waived by the Saints on Aug. 8.

Sixteen college football players were among the more than 30 plaintiffs who secured the temporary restraining order in Louisiana. A court date for the case has been scheduled for Aug. 31 in Louisiana's 19th Judicial District Court. The restraining order permitted plaintiffs to enter their names in the transfer portal over a one-week period outside of the sport's regular portal window, which extended from Jan. 2 to Jan. 16.
