The Minnesota Vikings are in mourning after former safety Joey Browner died Saturday at the age of 65.
Browner spent nearly a decade with the Vikings before finishing his NFL career with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
His death comes just a day after Minnesota lost another football great, Jeff Siemon.
Siemon, a four-time Pro Bowl middle linebacker who spent over a decade in Minnesota, passed away Saturday. A cause of death has not yet been revealed.
The former No 10 draft pick recorded the third most tackles in Vikings history (1,375) over the course of his 11 seasons with the team and started three Super Bowls.
He was first chosen to play in the Pro Bowl following the 1973 season, before earning three consecutive selections from 1975-77.
Long after his NFL career came to a close, Siemon was named one of the 50 Greatest Vikings as part of Minnesota’s 50 season celebration in 2010.
Tributes have poured in for the Minnesota icon, including from former teammate and fellow 50 Greatest Vikings member Ahmad Rashad, who hailed him as a ‘consummate professional and one of the best linebackers to ever play the game.’
