Yesterday, the NFL settled its momumental lawsuit with the former players suing for concussion-related injuries for the sum of $765M. Seemed like some pretty large coin to us but, apparently, NFLPA president Kevin Mawae is none too pleased with the result. Mawae believes that the NFL ultimately won out, as they're no longer obligated to reveal damaging information that could've possibly signalled their complicity in the injuries suffered by these players.
He wrote on his blog:
None
None
None
Mawae also told ESPN reporter Chris Mortensen that he felt the settlement was just "hush money." Given the fiasco that this could've turned into for the NFL, he's probably correct in that assessment.
What do you guys think? Could the former players have done anything to get a better deal?
