New York
Jets safety Rontez Miles has filed a lawsuit alleging he suffered an injury
because a referee ordered him to remove a protective visor. The plaintiff, who
wears a visor due to ocular photosensitivity, suffered a broken orbital bone
in his right eye in two places during a game in 2017. He alleges the injury
would not have taken place if he had been allowed to wear the visor during the
game.
