It occurred to me to handle it in the script rather than the html. Working code now is:

<a href="{@current_team.permalink}">{@current_team} {@current_team.age_bracket}</a>
<select id="player_sel_id" name="player" class="players-list">
[each current_team]
[each players]
	<option name="{@post_slug}" value="{@permalink,esc_url}" />{@post_title}</option>
[/each]
[/each]

</select> 
<script>
document.getElementById("player_sel_id").addEventListener("change", function (event) {
  location.href = event.target.value;
});
window.addEventListener('load', function () {
	document.getElementById("player_sel_id").value=window.location.protocol +
      "//" +
      window.location.host +
      window.location.pathname;
});
</script>

The entries table edit works. The form edit of an entry cannot uncheck ‘Approved?’ Field. The value is not retained. Choose ‘edit’ from entries table/list to see the problem. The ‘Approved’ caanot be cleared from there.
