Clayton Beathard, the younger brother of San Francisco 49ers backup quarterback C.J. Beathard, was fatally stabbed early Saturday morning outside of a Nashville bar.
Clayton Beathard, 22, and Paul Trapeni III, 21, were stabbed in the side and died at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. The two were friends and high school football teammates at Battle Ground Academy near Nashville.
Beathard was a junior quarterback at Long Island University who had appeared in seven games last fall before missing the rest of the season due to injury.
Nashville Police said in a statement they believe things began with an argument over a woman.
