Appeals Court Revives $4.7 Billion NFL Sunday Ticket Antitrust Verdict
World Sports · 04:59:36 - Sunday, 1 November 2026

On October 30, 2026, a federal appeals court reinstated a $4.7 billion antitrust verdict against the NFL over its "Sunday Ticket" out-of-market game package, setting the stage for a new damages trial.

The decision revives a jury's finding that the league's distribution of Sunday Ticket violated antitrust law. The case will now return to a lower court to determine damages.

The ruling represents a significant legal setback for the NFL, which had sought to overturn the verdict. The league faces potential liability of billions of dollars.
