He was a fifth-round draft pick by the Seahawks in 2016 and had an impressive college career with the Arkansas Razorbacks.
After joining the Ravens in 2017, Collins played two seasons with the team before briefly returning to the Seahawks in 2020 and 2021.
He was most recently a member of the Memphis Showboats roster in the USFL.
We extend our deepest sympathies to Alex’s family, friends, loved ones, and teammates. Rest in peace, Alex Collins (1994-2023).
