Oh wow, that is horrible. He was a great player. He also did some TV if I recall correctly - color commentary for NFL games? RIP.

 

called The Comeback with Charlie Jones. Also had the best Jheri Curl ever on a white guy

He was a terrific pass catching tight-end, and a tough guy... I will say, as a color commentator he was very "Dierdorfian", he could talk, a lot...

 

If I recall, he also did some play by play for the original American Gladiators! Now that was classic tv!

 

R.I.P.

There's a handful of NFL players I have memories of watching when I was a kid...Drew Pearson...Mean Joe Greene...and one of them was TC...RIP, man...57 is way to young.

Wow, this is just shocking.

 

I too remember him as a player and as a color commentator.

 

He was a very good Tight End for the Raiders. Always had to account for him in the passing game.

 

I liked him as a broadcaster. Yeah, he could go on and on about certain subjects, but he was never boring or offensive. He and Charlie Jones were a good team.

 

Very sad. RIP
