Bummer.
Kramer's description of his battles with Karas in IR are pretty classic.

How is his call of Otis Sistrunk having matriculated at the University of Mars not on the Internet?!

RIP. Karras seemed like a pretty good guy.
Wow, I didn't know that the Concussion Lawsuit was up to 3,500 plantiffs.

funny story
In an incident indicative of how the game was played then, Karras jabbed several punches into the face of an opposing player at the bottom of a pileup at the end of a play. Severely near-sighted and playing without glasses in those days before contact lenses, Karras asked one of his teammates in the ensuing huddle, “Who was that slob?” Answer: His older brother, Ted Karras, a guard for the Bears.
