Appeals court upholds Roselle Rule as illegal in part
A three judge panel of the US Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit ruled the NFL Roselle Rule unlawful under antitrust law but said reasonable player transfer restrictions are needed and should be negotiated. The decision, praising both NFL and NFLPA, urges bargaining to reach a settlement. The 35 page opinion states the clause is far more restrictive than necessary. The suit, filed May 1972 by John Mackey and 14 others, sought damages and facility relief.
