The cops don’t believe any foul play was involved in the death of former Heisman Trophy winner Rashaan Salaam.
His mother sheds some light on how they came to that conclusion.
Rashaan Salaam, winner of the 1994 Heisman Trophy and a first-round NFL draft pick in 1995, was found dead shortly before 9 p.m. Monday night at a park in Boulder, Colo., a Boulder police spokeswoman said.
His mother, Khalada, told USA TODAY Sports Tuesday that police said they suspect it’s a suicide after finding a note.
“They said they found a note and would share that with us when we get there,” Salaam’s mother said.
The police spokeswoman said the cause of death is still under investigation. She said there is no indication of foul play and no threat to the community.
Salaam was just 42-years-old.
