							Latest NFL Concussion Lawsuit Filed in Houston

Houston personal injury law firms Sutliff & Stout, PLLC and the Buzbee Law Firm have filed a
lawsuit against the NFL regarding concussions suffered by a former NFL player.

Houston, TX, February 29, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Houston personal injury attorneys at Sutliff & Stout,
PLLC and the Buzbee Law Firm filed a lawsuit on Friday, February 24 against the National Football
League on behalf of a former NFL player who currently suffers from concussion-related medical and
health problems.

This new lawsuit alleges fraud and negligence against the NFL and accuses the NFL of hiding medical
evidence about the risks of concussions. The lawsuit also contends that the NFL failed to notify players of
the risks and the long-term term problems associated with returning to play too soon after sustaining a
concussion.

When asked about the lawsuit, Hank Stout said, “The NFL had an obligation to be honest and forthright
with its players about the risks associated with concussions so the players could make informed decisions
about their long-term health and well-being. Unfortunately, the NFL did not fulfill its obligation.”

The lawsuit is pending in federal court in Houston, Texas.
