Henry Childs, former tight end for Kansas State, passed away unexpectedly at the age of 65 in his hometown from a heart attack. Not only was Childs considered one of the best to play at Kansas State, his career in the National Football League was quite accomplished as well.
Under head coach Vince Gibson, Childs had an incredible stay at Kansas State before entering into the NFL Draft in 1974. To this day, Childs is one of 28 players in Wildcat history with over 1,000 receiving yards in his career.
