The seven former football players who objected to the settlement with the NFL in the case over concussions are now seeking appellate review from the Third Circuit.
The group filed a petition for review with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit based on inadequacy of the class two weeks after the federal judge presiding over the case granted preliminary approval to the settlement agreement that has no cap on the amount of money the National Football League will have to pay into the recovery fund for former players who sustained head injuries.
