Denver Broncos wide reciever Kenny McKinley was found dead in an apparent suicide, according to a report from KDVR.
McKinley, 23, was on the injured reserved list and struggled to find playing time with the club after a standout career at South Carolina.
He is the third Broncos player to die suddenly in the last four years. Cornerback Darrent Williams was murdered in a drive-by shooting and running back Damien Nash died after collapsing in a charity basketball game. Both of those tragedies took place in 2007.
