Kyle Calloway, a former offensive lineman for the Iowa Hawkeyes, died after being struck by a train while jogging in Tucson, Ariz. on Saturday, The Gazette in Cedar Rapids reported.
A Tucson Police Department report said Calloway, 29, was jogging westbound on and off railroad tracks when he was struck from behind by a westbound train.
“That was what he did for exercise,” Ed Calloway, Kyle’s father, said. “He liked to run and it had rained the day before and the area where he ran was muddy, and so he was going back and forth across the tracks to get out of the mud.
