A former Utah high school football player is suing for at least $300,000, saying he suffered serious injuries and ongoing medical problems from playing with a concussion after his coach told him to “man up,” to “quit being a p----” and to “get back out there.”
Konnor Finn, a former player at Ridgeline High School in Millville, Cache County, filed suit in 1st District Court against the Cache County School District, its board of education and the Utah High School Activities Association.
The lawsuit says he was injured during a practice on Oct. 11, 2017, when the then-senior suffered a helmet-to-helmet hit.
