Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, center, arrives at federal court Tuesday, June 18, 2024, in Los Angeles. Jones is testifying in a class-action lawsuit filed by “Sunday Ticket” subscribers claiming the NFL broke antitrust laws.
The class-action, which covers 2.4 million residential subscribers and 48,000 businesses who paid for the package of out-of-market games from the 2011 through 2022 seasons, claims the league broke antitrust laws by selling its package of Sunday games aired on CBS and Fox at an inflated price. The subscribers also say the league restricted competition by offering “Sunday Ticket” only on a satellite provider.
Tuesday was not the first time Gutierrez has expressed frustration with the plaintiffs’ side. On Monday, he admonished their attorneys for repeatedly describing past testimony, which he considered a waste of time. When asked Tuesday if teams should be able to sell their out-of-market television rights, Jones said no because “it would undermine the free TV model we have now.”
