Former Ohio State football player Ray Griffin is one of four former college players who had lawsuits filed on their behalf Wednesday alleging they suffer from the effects of concussions suffered during their college careers.
Griffin’s suit named the NCAA and the Big Ten as defendants.
A representative for law firm Edelson PC of Chicago did not identify the other three players but said they were from Michigan, Tennessee and Duke. The actions follow similar lawsuits filed in May on behalf of players from six other universities. Wednesday’s lawsuits were in separate federal courts, Griffin’s in U.
