NFL Concussion Settlement Approved by Federal Judge
A federal judge in Philadelphia approved a settlement expected to cost the NFL about $1 billion over 65 years to resolve thousands of concussion lawsuits. The plan caps at $765 million, with payouts averaging about $190,000 and potential awards up to $1 million to $5 million for certain cases. The deal, supported by most retirees, ends a four-year legal fight and could start this summer, though appeals could delay payments.
