Are you telling me today's players are not aware of the possibility of concussions of playing football? No one is forcing them to play in the NFL. They are very well compensated for engaging in dangerous work.
that's for the courts to decide.
when i played high school football in the late 90's my teammates and i had no conception of a concussion being as damaging as they are now. I know Best came up after that but if he can show that the NFL knew or should have known about the breadth of concussion science and suppressed it or failed to make reasonable adjustments to the game and the education of players then yeah he should get paid.

He also suffered a severe concussion at Cal, but has not sued them or the NCAA. Instead, he will be working at Cal, and therefore be a member of the NCAA.
