Giants QB Tyrod Taylor Sues Chargers’ Doctor for Malpractice, per Report

Giants backup quarterback Tyrod Taylor is reportedly suing the Chargers’ team doctor for medical malpractice in regard to a punctured lung he suffered in 2020.

Taylor is seeking at least $5 million from Chargers team doctor David S. Gazzaniga and his company Newport Orthopedic Institute, according to the lawsuit obtained by ESPN. Gazzaniga is the doctor currently working with Justin Herbert regarding the rib cartilage fracture he suffered on Thursday Night Football.

Back in 2020, Taylor was being treated for a rib injury by Gazzaniga and suffered a punctured lung during treatment.
