Former NFL running back Alex Collins died at the age of 28 on Monday morning, his agent told ESPN. No cause of death was given.
A fifth-round pick by the Seahawks in 2016, Collins was released by Seattle a year later and became one of the biggest surprises on the 2017 Baltimore Ravens.
Collins led Baltimore with 973 yards rushing and six touchdowns, celebrating each score with an Irish dance that he learned from the daughter of his high school football coach.
In a statement on Monday night, the Ravens said: «With heavy hearts, we mourn the passing of Alex Collins. Always quick to greet everyone with a smile, he was a genuinely kind person who carried a special joy and passion wherever he went.
