Former NFL running back Reggie Bush will be $12.5 million dollars heavier in the after he won a lawsuit against the Rams, says Joel Currier of the St. Louis dispatch on Tuesday.
Bush 33, suffered the injury on a punt return as a member of the 49ers back in 2015 against the then St. Louis Rams, when he slipped on an unsafe surface which had exposed concrete and tore his ACL. It would be his last splash in the NFL after playing 1 more season in Buffalo were he ran for -3 yards on 12 carries in 13 games.
When asked about his thoughts on the verdict, Bush replied, "I'm very happy with the verdict," Bush said Tuesday. "The people spoke and decided very fairly."
The Rams organization will be ordered to pay him $4.95 million dollars in compensatory damages and $7.5 million in punitive damages after they were held liable for his injuries.
Bush spent last season as an analyst for the NFL network where he announced his retirement last December.
