Super Bowl

Former Philadelphia Eagle Awarded $43.5 Million in Medical Malpractice Case

PENALTY / TOUCHDOWN –

Feb. 14, 2023 – Maragos, who tore his posterior cruciate ligament during the Eagles’ 2017 Super Bowl-winning season, had alleged medical negligence against Dr. James Bradley and Rothman Orthopaedics. Maragos and his lawyers claimed the doctors missed that that player also had a torn meniscus, and the failure to treat that injury resulted in the end of Maragos’ NFL career. On Sunday, my team played in the (Super Bowl), and I could only watch and wonder whether I could have been out there with them had I received proper medical care,” Maragos said in a press release from his legal team. “While I live in constant pain and will never get back on the field, I hope this decision sends a message to teams’ medical staffs that players are people, not just contracts.”
