Former Notre Dame football star Paul Duncan died last week at age 35, the
athlete’s wife announced.

Duncan played as an offensive lineman for the Fighting Irish from 2005-09, and
then briefly for the NFL on the Denver Broncos, ND Insider reported. He went
into cardiac arrest on July 15, Duncan’s wife revealed. The couple share two
children.





“Yesterday, Friday July 15th, Paul went into cardiac arrest while on a run in
our neighborhood,” Ellen Duncan shared via Instagram. “Today he was pronounced
brain dead. We will have a medical examination to understand cause of death.”

“His body will be donated to people in need of organs and to medical research,”
Ellen said. “Thank you for your prayers and support.”



Another former NFL player, wide receiver Charles Johnson, recently passed, too.

The former New England Patriot was found dead in his hotel room this week,
reports said Wednesday. The athlete’s cause of death is currently unknown. He
was 50 years old at the time of his passing.

Tragically, the NFL has lost a string of active and former players this year. It
was revealed this month that former Dallas Cowboys player Marion Barber III died
of an accidental heat stroke, the Collin County medical examiner’s office said.



Barber, 38, was found unresponsive in his Frisco, Texas, apartment on June 1,
after police were called to make a welfare check.

Some had speculated that the NFL star suffered from chronic traumatic
encephalopathy, commonly known as CTE. The late player’s father, Marion Barber
II, publicly said that his son did not want his brain donated for CTE research.
Before his death, Barber was reportedly hospitalized for mental health concerns
on two occasions.

In another tragedy, the Baltimore Ravens’ 26-year-old linebacker Jaylon Ferguson
passed in June.



According to an autopsy report, Ferguson overdosed on cocaine and fentanyl.
