The family of Chargers great and Hall of Famer Junior Seau has reached a confidential settlement with the National Football League in the star's suicide six years ago.
On Friday, the former linebacker’s family filed notice in federal court that it was dismissing the case against the NFL.
Seau, 42 and an Oceanside native, had played 20 seasons in the league — 13 of them with the Chargers — before retiring from the game in 2009.
In May 2012, he shot himself in the chest in his beachfront Oceanside home.
