According to TMZ, retired NFL star Junior Seau was found dead in his home and the police are investigating a shooting. The article reports:

NFL legend Junior Seau was found dead in his home in Oceanside, CA … and cops are investigating a shooting … multiple law enforcement sources tell TMZ.

Cops are currently at Seau’s home just outside San Diego. Seau was 43-years-old … and leaves behind 3 kids and an ex-wife.

Seau, a 12-time Pro Bowler and 6-time First-Team All-Pro, was selected fifth overall in the 1990 NFL draft after an outstanding collegiate career at USC. He played with the San Diego Chargers through the 2002 season, spent 2003-2005 with the Miami Dolphins, and then signed with the New England Patriots in time for the 2006 season.

In New England’s perfect regular season of 2007, he played in all 16 games and started four. Seau retired after that season, but then returned in 2008 and 2009 before finally leaving the NFL for good.

In 2010, when Showtime asked what he planned to do during retirement, “I’m going to go surf.” He went on to add, “Whatever happens, I can say, honestly say, that that probably was my last game.”

Seau is the eighth member of the Chargers 1994 Super Bowl team to pass.

We will continue to update this story as more details become available.
