Former Buffalo Bills running back Curtis Brown had died. Brown was being treated for football-related dementia when he suffered a heart attack. He was 60-years-old. Brown was a third-round pick out of the University of Missouri in 1977. He played in the NFL until 1982, spending most of his career with the Bills and one year with the Houston Oilers.

Brown is remembered as a solid player, rushing for more than 2,000 yards in his career.

He is survived by numerous family members.
