LOS ANGELES — A federal judge has overturned a jury’s $4.7 billion verdict in the class-action lawsuit filed by “Sunday Ticket” subscribers against the NFL and has granted judgment to the NFL. U.S. District Judge Philip Gutierrez ruled Thursday that the testimony of two witnesses for the subscribers had flawed methodologies and should have been excluded. The jury on June 27 awarded $4.7 billion in damages to residential and commercial subscribers after it ruled the NFL violated antitrust laws in distributing out-of-market Sunday afternoon games on a premium subscription service. The lawsuit covered 2.4 million residential subscribers and 48,000 businesses in the United States who paid for the package on DirecTV of out-of-market games from the 2011 through 2022 seasons. Since damages can be tripled under federal antitrust laws, the NFL could have been liable for $14,121,779,833.92.

Read previewThe NFL landed a significant, albeit likely temporary, legal victory as a federal judge overturned a $4.7 billion verdict against the league. Gutierrez wrote that the evidence did not support the $4.7 billion in damages awarded in June. The jury initially awarded $4.7 billion in damages, which could have been tripled to $14 billion under federal antitrust laws. The judge wrote that two key witnesses' testimony should be excluded. Daniel Rascher and John Zona's testimonies were supposed to show that subscribers would have paid less if the NFL hadn't made a deal with DirecTV, the judge wrote.

New York CNN —A California judge threw out a jury verdict ordering the NFL to pay more than $4.7 billion for anti-trust violations surrounding its “Sunday Ticket” package, which lets fans watch games outside of their home markets but required them to buy access to a bundle of games to do so. The league, America’s most popular source of television programming, vowed to appeal the verdict in June. In a statement, the NFL said it was “grateful” for the ruling. In a court filing Thursday, US District Judge Philip Gutierrez brought up issue with the expert witnesses in the trial. “The Court agrees that Dr. Rascher’s and Dr. Zona’s testimonies based on their flawed methodologies should be excluded.
