Legislation who want to ban player-specific proposition bets on college sports in New Jersey cleared a key committee last week.

The bill, S-3080, prohibits sports wagering operators in the state from accepting bets on individual player performances in collegiate athletic events. Corrado, a Republican representing the 40th legislative district, introduced the measure in response to growing reports of online abuse targeting student-athletes.

“Proposition bets have led to a rise in the harassment of student-athletes and have threatened the integrity of college sports,” Corrado said in a statement. “This legislation will ban player-specific prop betting in New Jersey, which will help curb that appalling behavior.”

Several states have recently moved to curb college prop bets, including Ohio, Maryland, and Louisiana. Corrado’s bill follows that trend, aiming to protect student-athletes from being targeted by bettors upset over lost wagers.
