Former Buffalo Bills cornerback Vontae Davis has passed away at the age of 35. A former first-round pick of the Miami Dolphins, the two-time All-Pro Davis played a decade in the NFL with three different franchises.

A year after leaving the NFL behind, Davis became the CEO of a holistic wellness spa in the Fort Lauderdale, FL area in 2019.
