The NFL has been ordered to pay $4.7 billion for violating antitrust laws in the 'Sunday Ticket' case.
A U.S. District Court Jury has ruled that the NFL violated antitrust laws in the Sunday Ticket case and must pay $4.7 billion in damages.
The league violated the antitrust laws in distributing out-of-market Sunday afternoon games. The lawsuit claims the NFL broke the laws by selling the Sunday Ticket package at an inflated price and restricted competition by only offering the service to a satellite provider, DirecTV."We are disappointed with the jury's verdict today in the NFL Sunday Ticket class action lawsuit.
Sunday Ticket was available on DirecTV from 1994 through 2022, before the league signed a seven-year deal with YouTube TV beginning in the 2023 season.The post-trial motions will be heard on July 31. If the verdict is not set aside, the NFL plans to appeal in the Ninth Circuit Court.
