Long-time NFL executive Floyd Reese, who spent the final four years of his career with the New England Patriots, has died. He was 73 years old.
According to ESPN 102.5 The Game in Nashville, where Reese worked as a talk show host until last year, he passed away “peacefully this morning, surrounded by his family, after a battle with cancer.”
Reese spent a total of 36 seasons in the NFL, including four with the Patriots. He arrived in New England as a senior football advisor in January 2009, after long-time vice president of player personnel Scott Pioli left for Kansas City.
