Former football player Alex Collins has died at the young age of 28.

Just 12 days shy of his 29th birthday, the Baltimore Ravens have announced that the former running back has passed away.

“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. May Alex always be remembered for the light and love he brought to so many people in his life,” the team said in a statement.

People reported that Alex died in a fatal crash while driving a motorcycle on Sunday night in Florida.

Alex played one season with the Seattle Seahawks and then began a two-season run with the Baltimore Ravens. He was waived by the team in March 2019 after he was arrested following a car crash and later pleaded guilty to marijuana possession and possession of a handgun.

In 2020, Alex began a second stint with the Seattle Seahawks and he later joined the USFL team the Memphis Showboats in 2023, but was placed on the team’s injured reserve list back in May.

We’re sending our thoughts and condolences to Alex‘s loved ones during this difficult time.

Look back at all of the stars we’ve lost in 2023.
