Jason Scott Headshot

On Monday, football helmet manufacturer Riddell was named as a defendant in a class-action lawsuit claiming they didn’t properly protect football players from head injuries or inform them about the long-term risks.

The suit, filed in a California court by the firm Circelli, Walter & Young, seeks damages for healthcare costs, lost wages and other damages, according to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. It comes on the heels of a separate class-action suit from the firm, filed earlier in January, in which the NCAA and the Big 12 Conference are the named defendants.
