DALLAS - iSportsWire -- Agent Brandy Runyan, respected athlete management figure and advocate within the Canadian Football League's ranks, celebrates a significant victory with the addition of Article 28.1 to the CFL's Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA). This groundbreaking achievement marks a pivotal moment in the ongoing battle against fraudulent practices targeting free agent football players.
Runyan's tireless advocacy and relentless pursuit of justice have led to the implementation of Article 28.1, a provision aimed at safeguarding players from unscrupulous individuals posing as licensed NFL and CFL agents. This addition to the CBA comes as a direct result of Runyan's efforts to uncover and combat fraudulent activities in both Canada and the United States.
The prevalence of impostors charging exorbitant fees, often exceeding 10-30%, without proper oversight posed a significant threat to the welfare and financial security of free agent football players. With both the CFL and NFL regulating agent fees at 3%, these fraudulent practices exploited players who lacked the knowledge to verify the legitimacy of agents.

Through collaboration with the CFLPA and its legal team, Runyan spearheaded the initiative to address these deceptive practices head-on. As a result, all CFL clubs are now mandated to consult with the CFLPA and the licensing office to verify the legal licensure of CFL/NFL agents before commencing negotiations for any player's contract.
Reflecting on this achievement, Runyan expressed profound pride in the milestone attained in the ongoing efforts against fraud and corruption within the sports industry. Each instance of active litigation and accountability serves as a testament to Runyan's unwavering commitment to upholding ethical standards and protecting the rights of free agents.
Commenting on the accomplishment, Runyan stated, "I am honored to have played a role in securing the inclusion of Article 28.1 in the CFL's Collective Bargaining Agreement. This provision represents a crucial step forward in ensuring the integrity of player-agent relationships and safeguarding the interests of free agent football players."
The addition of Article 28.1 stands as a testament to Runyan's dedication to advocating for the welfare of CFL players and combating fraudulent practices within the sports industry. Runyan's relentless pursuit of justice underscores the pivotal role agents play in upholding ethical standards and protecting the rights of athletes.
