The total verdict against the NFL in the nationwide Sunday Ticket class action lawsuit has been confirmed to be $4.696 billion. This amount is tripled under antitrust law, resulting in a whopping $14.088 billion. However, it is possible that the judge may still dismiss or reduce this amount. As of now, the verdict stands at $14.088 billion, equivalent to $440.25 million per team.
To put this into perspective, this year’s salary cap for each team is $255.4 million. Therefore, the verdict is a significant sum of money that will have financial implications for those involved. However, it is unlikely to bankrupt anyone involved, as the ultra-rich individuals affected will still remain incredibly wealthy even after any potential adjustments to the verdict are made. Ultimately, while the outcome of this case may have financial implications, it is unlikely to drastically impact the financial status of those involved.
