A running list of college football players skipping 2024-25 bowl games

It’s officially college football bowl season, but not everyone plans on participating.

As we’ve seen in recent years, several big-name players opt to sit out their teams’ respective bowl games to get ready for the NFL Draft. And the 2024-25 bowl season isn’t much different, aside from the 12-team College Football Playoff field raising the stakes a bit for some bowls.
