Making his first extensive public comments since a jury ordered his league to pay billions of dollars in a class-action suit over the NFL Sunday Ticket out-of-market games package, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell expressed determination to appeal the verdict.
“Well, we obviously disagree with the jury verdict and we are committed obviously to following the legal process,” Goodell told CNBC’s Squawk on the Street Thursday from the Sun Valley media executive retreat in Idaho. “It’s a long process. We’re aware of that, but we feel very strongly about our position, our policies, particularly on media, that we make our — our sport available to the broadest possible audience.”
