Former NFL player and Liberty star Jessie Lemonier dies at age 25.

Jessie Lemonier, a linebacker and defensive end with the Detroit Lions and Los Angeles Chargers, passed away on Thursday at the age of 25, the organisations reported.

The Lions released a statement expressing their “shock and sadness” upon his loss. The reason of death is yet unknown.

Lemonier, listed by the NFL as 6-foot-2 and 240 pounds with Liberty in 2020, went undrafted before signing with the Chargers. In that year, he participated in six games for Los Angeles before signing with Detroit in 2021 and playing in seven games, including two starts. Last May, the Detroit Lions waived Lemonier, who was then signed by the Arizona Cardinals, who waived him during training camp.

The Lions stated that Jessie was a model teammate and a beautiful young guy who passed away far too soon. In this terrible time, our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.
In November, the Arlington Renegades of the XFL picked Lemonier, but he opted to join the USFL. On New Year’s Eve, the Houston Renegades of that league traded him to the Birmingham Stallions.

According to the Birmingham-based league, he was both a superb football player and a nice man. In this terrible time, our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.

According to Lemonier’s agency, he and his girlfriend are expecting a kid. Corey Lemonier, his older brother, earned a national title with the 2010 Auburn Tigers before spending four years in the NFL with the San Francisco 49ers, Cleveland Browns, and New York Jets.
