The football world is reeling after the death of Junior Seau. The former NFL great was found dead at his home on May 2, 2012 in what police believe to be a suicide.
Seau's death appears to be similar to the death of former Chicago Bear Dave Duerson.
Many football fans have also noted that Seau is now the eighth member fo the 1994 San Diego Chargers to have died before the age of 45.
Here is a list of 1994 San Diego Chargers who have died
June 19, 1995 - Linebacker David Griggs died in a car accident when his vehicle slid off a ramp on Florida's Turnpike, linking to three roads just west of Fort Lauderdale and subsequently slammed into a pole, he was 28 years old.
