Adrian Robinson Jr., a former NFL player for several professional teams, has died at the young age of 25, according to multiple media reports.
His agency, Symmetry, confirmed: "It deeply saddens all of us to share with you that Adrian Robinson Jr. passed away last night at the age of 25."
"Adrian was a beloved father, son, brother, friend, and teammate."
"We ask that you please respect his family's privacy during this difficult time, and especially keep his daughter Avery Marie in your prayers."

According to Sports Illustrated, Adrian Robinson had recently signed a new contract with the Canadian Football League's Hamilton Tiger-Cats.
His last NFL game was in 2013, with the Washington Redskins, though his agency lists the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as his most recent team.
He also played for San Diego Chargers, the Denver Broncos, and the Pittsburgh Steelers, having starred at Temple University in Philadelphia, Pa.
"The Temple football program lost a friend, a brother, and a wonderful young man today," Temple head coach Matt Rhule said in a statement.
