Which case is associated with a 2018 lawsuit in which former NFL players claimed painkiller prescriptions harmed them?

Murphy v. NCAA (2018)

The case in question fits discussions about athlete health and accountability in sports law. Murphy v. NCAA (2018) is the match because it is tied to a 2018 dispute involving athletes and medical treatment, specifically concerns around painkiller prescriptions and harm related to their use within the sports context. The other cases address different issues: Cohen v Brown University deals with gender equity in college athletics, Flood v. Kuhn centers on baseball’s antitrust status, and NCAA v. Board of Regents concerns NCAA control over broadcast rights. None of those involve painkiller prescriptions or former NFL players, so Murphy v. NCAA (2018) is the best fit.
