Pro Football Hall of Famer O.J. Simpson died Wednesday at the age of 76.
The Simpson family announced the news with a statement on X:
Amanda Batchelor of Local10.com in Las Vegas reported Feb. 9 that Simpson was diagnosed with prostate cancer and was undergoing chemotherapy. It's unclear when he originally received the diagnosis.
Simpson said in a video posted on X in May 2023 that he "caught cancer" in "recent years" and underwent chemotherapy before noting he had finished his treatment.
