Former NFL cornerback Vontae Davis, who played for the Miami Dolphins and Indianapolis Colts, was discovered deceased in his South Florida residence on Monday. Authorities in Davie, a suburb of Fort Lauderdale, responded to a medical emergency at Davis' home where the 35-year-old was found dead. No signs of foul play were reported, and the cause of death remains undisclosed pending autopsy results. The investigation into Davis' passing is ongoing.
Davis, a first-round draft pick by the Dolphins in 2009 from the University of Illinois, enjoyed a 10-season career in the NFL. He spent three seasons with Miami before being traded to the Colts in 2012, where he played for six seasons. The Colts' team owner expressed his condolences, remembering Davis as a great player and teammate.
