The vaccination status of the Baltimore Ravens outside linebacker was confirmed by his fiancée.

Ferguson’s death was announced by the Baltimore Ravens on Wednesday. He was 26.

“We are profoundly saddened by the tragic passing of Jaylon Ferguson,” the team said. “He was a kind, respectful young man with a big smile and infectious personality.

“We express our heartfelt condolences to Jaylon’s family and friends as we mourn a life lost much too soon.”

The team did not release any details around Ferguson’s passing, but in September 2021, coach John Harbaugh said 90% of the Ravens were already shot up with synthetic mRNA.

Ferguson had three children with his girlfriend Donni Smith, who is a catering chef. She confirmed in September 2021 that Ferguson was in fact vaccinated.
