Former Center Whitley Dead At 39; Body Sent To El Paso

POSTED: 2:24 pm MDT May 14, 2008
UPDATED: 2:35 pm MDT May 14, 2008

FORT STOCKTON, Texas -- Former NFL center Curtis Whitley was found dead in his trailer home in West Texas on Sunday night.

The local sheriff says the 39-year-old Whitley was found face down in the bathroom by friends who went to check on him after they had not heard from him. He says there was no sign of foul play, but the death remains under investigation.

Whitley was a fifth-round draft pick out of Clemson in 1992. He played for San Diego, Carolina and Oakland during six tumultuous seasons in the NFL, during which time he was suspended twice for violating the league's drug policy.

Whitley's body has been sent to El Paso for an autopsy.
