Former Notre Dame and Cincinnati Bengals star Ross Browner dies from COVID

[Norbert]

One heck of a player. Came from a very athletic family. My condolences to them.

Former Bengals pass rusher Ross Browner died from complications of COVID-19 after battling the virus for a month, the team website reports. Browner was 67.

The defensive end still ranks fifth on the Bengals’ all-time sacks list with 59. He had a game-high 10 tackles and the team’s only sack of Joe Montana, his college teammate, in Cincinnati’s 26-21 loss to the 49ers in Super Bowl XVI.

Ross was the oldest of a football family. Six brothers became high school All-Americans and three of them followed Ross to the NFL. Jimmy played with Ross a year in Cincinnati. Joey and Keith also played in the NFL.

1. I did not see his vaccination status. 67 is not that old.

I remember the Cincinnati v San Francisco Super Bowl. I wanted Cincinnati to win...

3. If not listed most likely not.

He probably thought he was smarter then the doctors like all antivaxxers. When will they learn?

4. Without evidence to that effect, I would not call him an anti-vaxxer

For now, I will wait for judgement on this.
