ESPN is reporting that former Miami Dolphin quarterback Dan Marino is among 15 former players to file a concussion-related lawsuit against the NFL.
quote:Marino, 52, played for the Dolphins from 1983–1999. Though he never won a Super Bowl, he is recognized by most as one of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2005.
Marino and the other 14 plaintiffs join more than 4,800 others who have alleged the NFL misled players about the long-term dangers of concussions. The NFL has denied those claims.
The lawsuit doesn't specify any medical problems suffered by the plaintiffs including Marino, who retired in 1999. It seeks unspecified damages and medical monitoring.
