Former Detroit Lions and Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Jessie Lemonier has died at the age of 25, it was confirmed on Thursday morning.
Lemonier played in seven games - and two starts - for the Lions during the 2021 season and recorded a sack of Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers in the regular-season finale in January 2022.
It is currently unclear how he died, and his agent confirmed to ESPN that 'he and his girlfriend were expecting a child'. He would have turned 26 on Tuesday.
