Former Chargers QB Tyrod Tayloris “suing Chargers team doctor Davis S. Gazzaniga and the Newport Orthopedic Institute that he runs." Taylor is seeking at least $5M after "suffering a punctured lung while being treated for a rib injury in 2020.” Prior to the Chargers' Sept. 20, 2020 game against the Chiefs, Taylor “suffered a punctured lung when Gazzaniga attempted to administer a pain-killing injection to his fractured ribs.” The trial “originally was scheduled for November,” but both sides “agreed to move it to April because of the current NFL season.” The issue has been "percolating since the lawsuit was filed” in L.A. County Superior Court in May 2021 (ESPN.com, 9/18).
