According to a lawsuit filed in Mecklenburg County on Monday, the NFL has told former Carolina Panthers safety Haruki Nakamura that not only can he no longer play football due to concussion symptoms, but that he is unable to return to any kind of employment for money.
But Nakamura still has not collected on a $1 million insurance policy he took out with an insurer before the 2012 season with the Panthers, and now he’s taking them to court.
Nakamura, 30, filed the suit this week against Lloyd’s of London seeking $3 million in damages, interest and lawyer fees.
