The NFL is facing a $21 billion gamble on its “Sunday Ticket” package, the only legal way for out-of-town fans to watch every game. But a federal class-action lawsuit filed by subscribers claims the league violated antitrust law by forcing consumers to pay top dollar to watch out-of-town games.

The NFL’s “Sunday Ticket” package is under scrutiny

The lawsuit alleges the NFL conspired with its television partners to keep the price of its “Sunday Ticket” package high to prevent it from impacting viewership numbers, which the networks use to sell ads. The suit also contends the league gave the package to DirecTV, a satellite provider that required the installation of a dish, to further limit subscriptions.

Meanwhile, the Kansas City Chiefs have released defensive lineman Isaiah Buggs following multiple incidents this offseason. Buggs was arrested on a domestic violence/burglary charge and booked into Tuscaloosa County Jail last week. He had also turned himself in to the same jail on misdemeanor animal cruelty charges in May.
