Former Dallas Cowboys lineman Char-ron Dorsey died on Monday at the age of 46 following complications from a stroke.
The Jacksonville Florida Times-Union were first to report news of Dorsey's passing, which comes just over 10 years since his NFL career came to an end.
As well as spending a year with the Cowboys, who selected him in the seventh round of the 2001 NFL Draft, the Jacksonville-born man also won a national title in his days at Florida State University.
After retiring as a player, he then went on to enjoy a long career as a youth coach.
'Just at a loss for words thinking about my brother,' said Parker High School coach Mike Holloway, who worked under Dorsey. 'We’ve been doing this for a very long time until now. We see kids that we’ve coached now are coaching or have kids themselves.
'We built a legacy on hard work and doing it ourselves, letting kids know through hard work and dedication you can make it and be successful.'
