BIOGRAPHY, WIKIPEDIA AGE AND NET WORTH: NFL quarterback, Ryan Mallett, has passed away after he drowned in Florida.

The Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office confirmed that former NFL quarterback Ryan Mallett died Tuesday after he reportedly drowned at a beach in Destin, Florida.

The OCSO is investigating the drowning after first responders were called to the beach behind the 700 block of Gulf Shore Drive in Destin around 2:12 p.m. The former quarterback had a seven-year career in the league.

He spent three years with the Patriots from 2011 to 2013, serving as Tom Brady’s backup during this period. In 2014, he moved to the Houston Texans, where he was the immediate backup to Ryan Fitzpatrick and became the starter later in the season. In 2015, he lost the starter battle to Brian Hoyer.
