Former NFL defensive lineman and Chicago native Glenn Foster died at the age of 31 years old on Monday while in police custody in Alabama.

Foster, who played 17 games over two seasons with the New Orleans Saints, had been booked on counts of reckless endangerment, resisting arrest and attempting to elude police in Pickens County.

The cause of death is currently unknown as the Pickens County medical examiner's office said the case remains under investigation.
