Medrick Burnett Jr., 20, died on Wednesday, according to the Daily Mail, weeks after he went on life support after a head-to-head collision with another player during an Oct. 26 game against Alabama State University.

Burnett spent weeks in the ICU, and his family wrote on GoFundMe that he was suffering from brain bleeding and a swollen brain. Alabama A&M University wrongly informed its community that Burnett died on Tuesday, regarding him as a man whose “positive energy, leadership, and compassion left an indelible mark on everyone who knew him,” but the family later said that Bur.
