Sad news to report today.

Former NFL star Tony "Goose" Siragusa has passed away at the age of 55, according to reports. There has been no cause of death publicly revealed.

His former teammate Jamal Lewis confirmed the passing.

"It's a sad day to be a Raven, I must say," Lewis told TMZ Sports.

Siragusa played 12 seasons with seven with the Colts and the final five years in Baltimore.

Overall, he had an impressive 404 tackles, 22 sacks and five forced fumbles. After his playing days were over, he was a sideline analyst for Fox Sports from 2003 until 2015.
