Around 100 NFL players and 24 employees are set to be slapped with fines from the league after an investigation revealed that they had resold overpriced tickets to the 2025 Super Bowl LIX. A source, speaking to the Associated Press on the condition of anonymity, has revealed that an ongoing investigation found dozens of fines are set to be issued over the matter. NFL policy states that tickets to the game cannot be sold for greater than their face value. Individuals discovered to have flouted the rules for some quick cash will be sanctioned with fines one and a half times the amount they sold the tickets for. If those people are club employees, the fine will be twice the money they made. “We are in the process of completing our investigation into this matter,” a memo sent to teams by the NFL’s head of compliance read. Players from all 32 clubs are allowed to purchase two tickets to the final but are not allowed to profit from them. The NFL has said it will increase compliance training and fines for breaches in early fall.
