Alex Collins, the NFL running back who achieved viral fame by incorporating Irish dance into his training, has died at the age of 28.

"It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Alex Collins this morning," Collins' family said in a statement released through the Seahawks on Monday, August 14.

"Alex was cherished by his family and friends as well as supporters from all around the world. All who truly know him can attest to his drive, determination, and larger-than-life personality.

“We kindly request your thoughts and prayers for our family during this difficult time. We ask for privacy as we navigate through our grief. We will provide updates regarding funeral arrangements as they become available."

The Broward County Sheriff's Office in Florida said that on Sunday night, August 13, Alexander Collins was pronounced dead on the scene after his motorcycle collided with an SUV in Lauderdale Lakes.

Collins, a native of Florida who played college football at Arkansas, was drafted by the Seattle Seahawks in 2016. He then played for the Baltimore Ravens in 2017 and 2018 before returning to the Seahawks in 2020 and 2021.

Earlier this year, Collins signed with the USFL's Memphis Showboats, though his campaign ended in there in May when he was placed on injured reserve.
