It seems like a pretty blatant exploitation of somebody's likeness to me.
The last time I played the game, there was no likeness to any player. The only likeness was that they put their correct number on their backs. They have a group of generic heads that all the players look like.
While I don't disagree in principle to what they are suing about, this is a money grab for a bunch of kids who couldn't make it past the college level and are now mad about it.

I believe the players would be considered public figures as well.
These players also get scholarships, training, food, medical, up around to 19k in cash a year, etc... with all the benefits in total, most get around 60-100k a year in benefits and money that non athletes don't get
