CLEVELAND (AP) -A settlement has been reached in the lawsuit over a staph infection that benched former Cleveland Browns receiver Joe Jurevicius (joor-eh-VIH’-shuhs).
Jurevicius filed the suit last year against the Browns and the Cleveland Clinic over the cleanliness of the team’s training facility. He blamed doctors with negligence over the 2008 staph infection in his right knee.
No settlement terms were disclosed. Team attorney Fred Nance said Tuesday that the terms will be kept confidential.
There was no immediate comment from Jurevicius. His attorney did not immediately respond to a message seeking comment.
The docket for Judge John Russo, who was handling the case, says attorneys informed the court last week that a settlement had been reached.
