NFL lawsuits about concussions

Over 100 former professional football players join more then a 1,500 other players that claim the NFL hid the dangers of concussions from them. The last lawsuit filed Thursday states the NFL "repeatedly refuted the connection between concussions and brain injury." I went on to say they failed "to take reasonable steps necessary to protect players from devastating head injuries. Moreover, the NFL has downplayed and misrepresented the issues and misled players concerning the risks associated with concussions." The NFL has that "any allegation that the NFL intentionally sought to mislead players has no merit." At this point there has not been a trial date set.
