From the article:

"Jeremy Coon, a producer and editor on the 2004 movie “Napoleon Dynamite,” and his collaborator Tim Skousen have launched a Kickstarter campaign with the intention of buying the footage from Haupt and bringing it to the viewing public. The two filmmakers are already working on a documentary about Super Bowl I, and if they raise the needed money to buy the film from Haupt for $750,000, they have vowed to stream the whole game for free before Super Bowl LV in February 2021."

According to the article, they are setting up a legal fund as well to deal with the inevitable.

Without the expressed written permission of the National and American Football Leagues?

If you go to the Kickstarter site itself, you will see that their initial goal is for $50k. Goal #2 is $200k. Goal #3 is $1.5 million.

The $50k is what they say is needed to finish a documentary about the existence of the recording of SBI, the negotiation between the family and the NFL over the recording ... to tell the story and to garner attention.

With $200k they can make a much better documentary.

With $1.5 million, they take on the NFL and release it (I think they are seriously undershooting the legal costs ... personally, I think they really want to have a great documentary and not fight the NFL):
