Wow, very sad if true. He was truly one of the greats from the 90s teams - up there with Jimbo, Thurman, Andre, and Bruce. It really makes you wonder if playing football for that long is a healthy thing to do...

From the comments:

 

I played in his golf tourney a few months back and I can remember Jim Kelly from Miami and his partner in Buffalo saying he is going to be dead in a few months if he doesn't get back in some type of physical shape. I am stunned to hear this after hearing him say that to me...

 

Yikes.

 

RIP Big Guy.

Of course the all-time great Kent Hull story is that he signed with the Bills the same day Jim Kelly did. Jim was picked up at the airport by a limo and had a police escort. Kent followed in the back of an equipment van.

 

RIP Kent.

My grandfather worked for the team in the 80's. i remember meeting Kent in 86 as a rookie. He was massive to me. But was very gracious to us kids. Later i went to Jim Kelly's first ever football camp. As an olineman myself Kent worked with us kids along with Jim Richter, two extremely nice guys.

Very sad to see guys you looked up to and loved to watch play them game pass.

Lots of good football men passing this month!
