We found this report on FOX News...
Former Chicago Bears safety Dave Duerson was found dead Thursday night at his home in Miami, according to the Miami Dade County coroner's office.
The Bears issued the following statement:
"We are stunned and saddened to hear the tragic news regarding Dave Duerson," the Bears said in a release Friday. "He was a great contributor to our team and the Chicago community. Today is a difficult day for all of us who loved Dave. We'll miss him. Our prayers are with his family."
Duerson, 50, starred at Notre Dame and played for the legendary Bears defense that powered the team to a victory in Super Bowl XX. He was elected to four straight Pro Bowls from 1986-89 and also won a second Super Bowl with the 1990 Giants.
Duerson set a record -- later broken by Cardinals safety Adrian Wilson in 2005 -- for most sacks in a single season by a defensive back, with seven.
Following his playing career, Duerson worked for Chicago sports radio station 670 AM The Score and also owned and operated a sausage company that is now known as Fair Oaks Farm.
SIPSUM Cocktailz sends out their condolences to his family and friends. R.I.P Dave!!
