Former Heisman Trophy Winner Dead at 42

By ESPN

Rashaan Salaam, who won the Heisman Trophy in 1994, has died, a family spokesperson said Tuesday.

He was 42.

Salaam's body was found in a parking lot at Eben G. Fine Park and 911 was called just before 9 p.m. on Monday, according to Boulder Police spokesperson Shannon Cordingly. The park is less than two miles from Folsom Field, where Salaam starred as a running back for the University of Colorado.

Cordingly said there were no signs of foul play and an autopsy to determine the cause of death will be performed by the Boulder County Coroner's Office. Police told Salaam's mother, Khalada, they suspect suicide after finding a note. She told USA Today Sports, "They said they found a note and would share that with us when we get there."

"The Buff Family has lost an outstanding young man and a great Buff today," Colorado athletic director Rick George said Tuesday. "We are heartbroken for Rashaan and his family, and our thoughts and prayers are with them at this very difficult time."

Colts' Jackson Suspended For Final Games

Colts linebacker D'Qwell Jackson has been suspended without pay for the final four regular-season games for using performance enhancing substances, the NFL announced Tuesday.

Jackson will be eligible to return Jan. 2, 2017, the day after the regular season ends.

The Colts will have to make the playoffs in order for Jackson to play again this season. They're currently in a three-way tie with Houston and Tennessee for first place in the AFC South.

Jackson has led the Colts in tackles in each of his three seasons with the team. He left Monday night's game against the New York Jets with a concussion.

Middle linebacker has been a weak spot for the Colts all season. Josh McNary is a possible candidate to start while Jackson is out.
