"The compensation provided in this settlement will lift a heavy (financial) burden off of the men who are suffering,Air Force One Scontate," Turner said. He hopes it will ensure that future players "do not suffer the way that many in my generation have."
The total settlement would include $675 million for compensatory claims, for players with neurological symptoms; $75 million for baseline testing for asymptomatic men; and $10 million for medical research and education. The NFL would also pay an additional $112 million to the players' lawyers for their fees and expenses, for a total payout of nearly $900 million.
