Lincoln Riley open to adding NFL players to USC football team

As USC football prepares for its season opener, coach Lincoln Riley faces the potential dilemma of whether to welcome back former players who have signed with NFL teams but may seek to return to college.

The situation raises questions about locker room dynamics and the implications of integrating players who were not part of the team’s preparation.
