Ferguson’s agent, Safarrah Lawson, shared a similar message this morning. “He was a wonderful young man full of love and life,” Lawson said in a statement. “He will be remembered not just as a football player, but as a great father, son, brother and friend. The family asks for your continued prayers.”
A third round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, Ferguson spent his entire career with Baltimore. He totaled 67 tackles and 4.5 sacks in his career.
While starring for Louisiana Tech University, Ferguson registered 45 career sacks – an FBS record which still stands.
OutKick extends our thoughts and prayers to his family and friends.

Another case of SADS. I’m going to go out on a limb and say he was jabbed. Gee, we can’t figure what it is, says the monkey doctors with hands over their eyes and ears……
Hate to say it but when no cause of death is given for a young, professional athlete in prime physical condition,,one tends to think the Death Jab or fentenal.
