Court Holding Up NFL Money Pact
A proposed settlement of over 13 million dollars between the NFL Players Association and NFL clubs is stalled by objections from 17 players led by Rod Walters of the Kansas City Chiefs. The deal would compensate players affected by the Rozelle Rule, using service-length points since 1872 to determine payments, with totals from 150 to over 20 thousand dollars. Judge Earl Larson, with a lengthy tenure, seeks quick resolution as NFLPA and club attorneys defend the agreement as fair.
