One of the better offensive linemen this past decade has passed away at the young age of 40 - ex-Raven and Cleveland Brown, Orlando "Zeus" Brown - according to NFL Network's Jason LaCanfora:
If the name sounds familiar to you, then you must remember the Ravens in their glory years. Once he left the Ravens for their not-so-great division rivals the Cleveland Browns, he had an incident with referee Jeff Triplett.
Triplett threw a flag that "accidentally" hit Brown in his right eye.
In frustration, he pushed the ref, and was automatically ejected.
In a 2003 article by Sports Illustrated, it was written that Brown nearly lost vision in that eye.
It's sad that such a player had to die at such a young age. Current Ravens running back Ray Ricesaid tweeted it best:
