Lexington Herald-Leader (KY)
Dozens of former professional football players filed fake insurance claims in recent years but were not charged in the scheme, according to a sentencing memorandum in a federal court case.
The investigation has resulted in charges against 15 former National Football League players in federal court in Lexington.
However, the insurance company involved in the case, Cigna, identified a total of 77 former NFL players who submitted fraudulent claims for medical equipment beginning in 2017, according to the court document.
The document did not disclose the names of anyone not charged in the case.
