Legendary NFL broadcaster John Madden died Tuesday morning, the league announced today. He was 85.
He was the most recognizable face of football and lent his name to the wildly succesful NFL video game series.
“On behalf of the entire NFL family, we extend our condolences to Virginia, Mike, Joe and their families,” NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement.
Memorial service information would be released when available, the league said.
