From complications of multiple health issues.  Maybe the most underrated sports nickname.  RIP to the Pillsbury Throwboy.

So sad that he passed at 38 years young.

I always pictured Butterbean underneath those pads.  The hefty man could ball out though.

RIP Jared.

Was a few years behind my stepson at Ft. Thomas Highlands.  The whole town is in mourning.  Such a talent and so, so funny with his football stories.  Going to miss him.

In a weird coincidence, the other backup QB on the 2007 Giants (Anthony Wright) was shot multiple times by his girlfriend's ex-boyfriend on Monday.

He had emergency surgery and was listed as being stable the last I heard.

People who knew him seemed to think he was just the nicest guy ever. Very sad.

"Pillsbury Throwboy" is still the greatest nickname ever IMO.

Off subject a little, but did they lose their coach?  I noticed they haven't been as good the past few years.

They stopped taking kids outside the district.

I'm curious about his health problems.  Did he have something wrong with him, or was all of this related to his weight?  38 seems far too young for anyone.

I have a friend who went to UK, and they are very upset and he says the Lexington community is devastated...he was really visible and connected locally.
