Trinidad Chambliss: NCAA eligibility fight cost chance at EA video game cover

The fight to keep Trinidad Chambliss on the field is now spilling into a very different kind of scoreboard.

In a court filing Thursday made in the Chancery Court of Lafayette County, Miss., the Ole Miss quarterback said the ongoing uncertainty around his NCAA eligibility cost him a chance to land on the cover of EA Sports' next college football video game.

Chambliss' attorneys wrote that, as recently as last week, he was one of three finalists -- "if not EA Sports' favored player" -- before the company abruptly pulled back.
