Nijaree Canady signed her AUSL contract today

"A source familiar with the situation told Front Office Sports her contract terms are consistent with that of the other AUSL rookies. Players can make up to $75,000 annually. Sounds like the reaction to her agent's original press release got her attention. "Colas sent reporters a revised statement Thursday afternoon, which stated that Canady looked forward to joining her team upon finalizing a contract, rather than “a fair and equitable” contract. It also read “it’s about what you owe the sport and everyone coming after you” instead of “it’s about setting a standard and advocating for their value.” Nijaree, you're not in Lubbock anymore.

Florida Breeze needs to trade for her. Ps gave up 5 HRs for 12 of 13 runs.**

Perfect example of how "UN-real" the world of NIL is. Emphasis on "UN".

Well, the $2.25 million she's made in the last two years is very real.
