Former New Orleans Saints defensive end Glenn Foster Jr. died Monday, two days after he had been placed into custody in Pickens County, Alabama, according to NOLA.com's Mike A. Perlstein and Ramon Antonio Vargas.
An official from the Pickens County Medical Examiner & Coroner's Office confirmed Foster's death but declined to comment on the cause or location, citing the ongoing investigation into the case. The Pickens County Sheriff's Office and Alabama State Bureau of Investigation also failed to answer questions from or provide a comment to Perlstein and Vargas.
