FILE – In this Nov. 8, 1954, file photo, Chicago Cardinals football player Ollie Matson, injured the day before in a football game in Philadelphia, is shown in a hospital bed in Chicago. Ollie Matson was an Olympic sprinter, a Hall of Fame football player and a loving father. His son, Ollie Jr., believes the repeated blows to the head his dad received in the NFL cheated them out of 20 years of good times together. (AP Photo/Charles E. Knoblock, File)
