Football player's family sues Riddell
The LA Times reported today that the family of Edward Acuna has filed suit against Riddell, alleging a defect in the padding in the front of Acuna's football helmet. Acuna suffered a subdural hematoma that left him permanently partially paralyzed during a football game in October of 2009. The family's attorney alleges that Riddell was aware of the padding problem in the helmet for a decade prior to Acuna's injury.
