Chris Maragos, the former Philadelphia Eagles safety and special teams captain, has been awarded $43.5 million after suing the medical team for allegedly mistreating his injured knee, resulting in the termination of his football career. Following the Eagles' 38-35 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, I watched and wondered if I had been out there with them if I had received proper medical attention on Sunday.' 'I live in constant pain and will never return to action, but I hope this decision gives the teams' medical staffs that players are people, not contracts.' The Maragos sued orthopedic surgeon James Bradley and Rothman Orthopaedics for allegedly failing to care for a torn meniscus injury he suffered, resulting in his football career's premature termination, as well as persistent pain and other physical ailments.
