Agent David Canter confirmed his client's death, as did Denver team officials.
"The Broncos family has suffered a great loss with the passing of Damien Nash," coach Mike Shanahan said from Indianapolis, where he was attending the NFL's scouting combine along with general manager Ted Sundquist. "I am stunned and deeply saddened by this tragedy, and send my deepest condolences to Damien's family."
RIP......Another Athlete Dead, so far 2007 seems to be a horrible year for sports - Darrent, Danielo, Dennis Johnson, now Nash, even though he wasnt important to Broncos at all, he tried hard in training camp to beat Tatum Bell to starting spot, which was almost impossible to achive.
