Family will sue NFL.... SMH
What don't these football players understand? Does a fireman's family sue the fire Dept when their loved ones dies in a fire? Does the race car drivers family sue when they die in a crash coming off turn 2? Does a plumbers family sue when Big John unclogs a raunchy turd and the sh*t water splashes up in his face causing a nasty case of pink eye?
Most jobs that make a lot of money are high risk/high reward. They know they're signing up to but their bodies, including head & brain on the line. If that is too dangerous than don't do it... By all means, find a safe 9-5 job that's less dangerous. I'm tired of the doo-gooders pretending like these guys have a gun to their head to do this job and the dangers are unavoidable. It's avoidable at every level... Don't play. Or play, take the risk, and make a butt load of money to catch a stupid little oblong ball, block another fat-ass, or lightly tackle the QB in the midsection (not high or low, by all means).
And his wife... Give me a break. This dude was shooting dudes in the face at 17... It wasn't CTE. This guy was pure evil
