Former Kansas City Chief Star Dead At 37

Allen Bailey, a former NFL defensive lineman nicknamed “The Hulk” for his burly physique, has died at age 37.
His wife, Lauren Bailey, found him dead in their Florida home Tuesday, the defender’s brother, Alford Bailey Jr., told TMZ Wednesday.

Although a cause of death hasn’t been confirmed, Alford said the family believes he died of natural causes.

Chiefs coach Andy Reid spoke about Bailey’s death at a news conference on Wednesday.

“Our hearts go out to his family. Prayers are with them,” Reid said. “Way too young, obviously. One of my favorite players. Great kid. Just sorry to see that happened to him.”

Jalen Hurts is expected to miss the rest of the season after doctors discovered multiple blood clots in the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback’s lungs, sources told NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Hurts will undergo treatment involving blood thinners that is expected to sideline the three-time Pro Bowler for at least three months, sources informed of the diagnosis told Rapoport and Schefter.

Hurts’ agent, Nicole Lynn, and the Eagles released a statement Monday detailing Hurts’ condition. Lynn and the Eagles said Hurts has deep vein thrombosis and bilateral pulmonary emboli, meaning a blood clot traveled from his legs to his lungs.
