Damion Cook, an offensive lineman who spent nine years in and out of the NFL, has died at the age of 36. The athletics department at his alma mater, Bethune-Cookman, confirmed his death on Friday. Maurice Clarett, who played with Cook on the Omaha Nighthawks of the United Football League, wrote on Instagram that the cause of death was a heart attack. “I played with him in Omaha for 2 years,” Clarett wrote. “I talked to him daily out there. The brother blocked for me and gave me a ride to the football facility often when I didn’t have a car. More important than that he always talked about the lord 24/7. Played gospel music constantly and always praised his wife and kids. Very crazy to hear the news. Still hasn’t hit me yet. Unbelievable to be real.” - See more at: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/06/27/ex-nfl-player-damion-cook-dies-at-36/
