NFL Concussion Settlement

The NFL Concussion Settlement is an agreement providing compensation and healthcare benefits to former players affected by brain injuries related to their football careers. It was created to address concerns about concussion-related conditions like CTE, cognitive decline, and mental health issues. The settlement includes medical exams, ongoing care, and monetary awards for eligible players showing symptoms or diagnosed with brain injuries. Its goal is to support former athletes and acknowledge the league's acknowledgment of the long-term risks associated with repeated head trauma in football.
