Mackey targets Rozelle rule in NFL challenge
John Mackey, a former tight end with the Baltimore Colts and San Diego Chargers, fronts a group of players challenging the Rozelle rule with the NFL Players Association. He accuses league regulations of limiting his trade opportunities and career options after leaving Baltimore. The suit, filed in U S District Court, signals a weeks long battle over compensation and player movement policies. Mackey cites a 1963 64 signing, a 1969 70 contract peak, and a 1972 finish with San Diego as context for the case.
