The AARP Looks at Retired NFL Players

Feb 13, 2009

AARP Bulletin Today

You know it’s getting really serious when the AARP features a comprehensive article  on the sorry state of benefits as it applies to the NFLPA’s seniors. As long-time advocates for the retired, the AARP represents a large and vocal bloc of seniors with votes who generally get the attention of our government representatives. The article starts with Willie Wood’s life after the NFL and includes quotes from Mike Ditka and John Hogan. You can read the entire article by clicking HERE.

Thank you, AARP!
