Mississippi Jury Rules in Favor of Helmet Maker
A Mississippi jury has decided that helmet manufacturer Riddell is not responsible for the injury of a George County High School football player in 2006.
The unanimous verdict in the Southern District of Mississippi came last week after a five-day trial.
Attorney Thomas Merrigan, who represents Riddell, said in a statement that “we are pleased that the jury recognized the rigorous approach that Riddell brings to the research, development, testing and certification of our protective sports equipment.”
Riddell is one of the helmet providers for the NFL.
