Roger Goodell, Jerry Jones Testify in $21 Billion NFL 'Sunday Ticket' Antitrust Lawsuit

Jun 17, 2024, 08:01 PM

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell is testifying in a class-action lawsuit in Los Angeles regarding the NFL's 'Sunday Ticket' package. The lawsuit, which dates back to 2015, challenges the NFL's strategy of bundling out-of-market rights, alleging it violates antitrust law. The class action includes over 2.4 million residential subscribers and 48,000 businesses, primarily bars and restaurants, who purchased 'NFL Sunday Ticket' from June 17, 2011, to February 7, 2023. Goodell, along with Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, has defended the package as a 'premium product.' The case could have significant financial implications for the NFL, with the lawsuit valued at $21 billion. Testimony kicks off at 9 a.m. PT in Courtroom 6A.
