By creating a federal NIL statute that would preempt state law. Both NIL and intercollegiate athletics touch on interstate commerce, so it's clearly within their power to do so. I'm not sure they would be inclined to do so, but it also seems to me that perhaps leveling the playing field is a compelling governmental interest. And while I'm aware that Congress has more pressing matters than intercollegiate athletics, this wouldn't be the first time they entered that particular area. See, e.g., Title IX.
