NFL Draft Prospect Heath Benedict dies at 24

Heath Benedict, a 2-Time Little All-American Offensive Lineman was found dead on his couch at the age of 24. He finished up his Senior year last year at Newberry College, and was 9-hours short of a Business Degree.

He left school last fall to train for the NFL Draft - the 6'6" 256 pounder actually joined the Senior Bowl and was the first Division II player to do so since 2004 - he was also invited to the NFL Combine last month...

Benedict red-shirted at TENN before transferring to Newberry.
