Rozelle Rule Challenged by Ex Colt Mackey in Lawsuit
Former NFL tight end John Mackey 33 says league rules limit player movement and hinder team changes. Joined by 15 other plaintiffs, Mackey argues the Rozelle rule allows draft picks to be allotted when clubs fail to agree on compensation, potentially restricting his career after nine seasons with the Colts and a stint with San Diego. The suit, led by NFLPA, opened before U.S. District Court Judge Farr Larson and may unfold over weeks.
