Former Colts offensive lineman Matt Ulrich died Wednesday, team owner Jim Irsay announced. Ulrich was 41.
A cause of death was not announced.
“I am heartbroken to hear of the passing of Matt Ulrich. Matt was with us only two seasons, but left his mark on many,” Irsay posted on social media. “Great guy, I hear he was a great dad — and he was a Super Bowl champ. My prayers to his family.”
Ulrich went undrafted coming out of Northwestern and signed with the Colts as a free agent. He made the team out of training camp and played 10 games over two seasons at guard.
