AJ Simon's final Instagram post has been flooded with tributes - including a heartbreaking comment from his apparent girlfriend at the time of his death.
The defensive lineman, who hoped to play in the NFL, died just days before the draft, with the University of Albany announcing his death on Wednesday. No cause of death has been revealed.
Since then, Simon's final Instagram post - which showed him working out at Albany's pro day - has been met with tons of well-wishes, with a woman appearing to be his girlfriend writing 'I will never understand why you left this earth.'
'I constantly stare at your insta and wish you were still here,' she wrote. 'We had a whole life planned together and I will never understand why you left this earth. I love you much and please protect and watch over me. Can’t wait to see you again, I love you with all my heart.
The woman, named Symone Costin, graduated from Bloomsbury University according to her LinkedIn page. Simon began his college career at Bloomsbury.
