LOS ANGELES (AP) Mark Duper, Ottis Anderson and 73 other former players
sued the National Football League, claiming it concealed information about
the danger of concussions for decades.
.
The negligence, fraud and liability suit was filed Tuesday in Los Angeles
Superior Court. Many players' wives also are plaintiffs.
.
The suit alleges the NFL knew as early as the 1920s of the harmful effects
of concussions but concealed them from coaches, trainers, players and the
public until June 2010. It also names helmet-maker Riddell, the NFL's
official helmet supplier.
.
It seeks unspecified damages.
.
"We have not seen the complaint but would vigorously contest any claims of
this kind," NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said in a statement.
.
Riddell spokeswoman Laura Moore said the company had not yet reviewed the
complaint and its policy was to not comment on pending litigation.
.

.
The NFL only warned active players in June 2010 of the risks associated
with multiple concussions and Riddell failed to warn active players until
around the same time, the suit claims.
.
The NFL has never warned past players, according to the suit.
