Former NFL offensive lineman Jordan Devey, a Super Bowl XLIX champion with the New England Patriots, died by suicide at age 38, according to his family. Devey, who played for the Ravens, Patriots, 49ers, Chiefs, Raiders and Bills over eight seasons, left behind his wife Linsey and their four children on what would have been their 15th wedding anniversary. His parents publicly speculated that he may have suffered from chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a degenerative brain disease linked to repeated head injuries, though no definitive posthumous diagnosis could be made. A GoFundMe page established to support the family described the death and noted the community’s emotional and financial burdens. Teammates and communities mourn his post-NFL coaching and mentoring work in Eagle, Idaho, with tributes highlighting his impact. The case adds to broader discussions about long-term NFL health risks and the need for mental health support.
