John Clayton died today.

This one is surprising.  Listened to him on WGR recently.  Shows how precious and fragile life is.

RIP Professor.

I enjoyed him. Seemed like a good man.

RIP John.  A gentleman in a profession sorely lacking in them.

One of my favorite commercials. R.I.P. John Clayton 😢 

Mommmm!

By all accounts, he was a pro's pro in the media, confident and skilled but not arrogant, and I honestly liked his down to earth style of speaking too.

 

As others have stated, very sad. Madden and Clayton were two different but uniquely talented pioneers at telling the story of football.

Wow.

 

Crushing. Really the only time I would listen to WGR was when John was on or coming on. Such an amazing mind. Rest in Peace John Clayton ❤

Was one of the first dedicated NFL reporters I recall.  Seemed like a good dude, didn’t take himself too seriously.

Really is sad. He was such a staple of football coverage for so long.

I lived 10 years in the Seattle market.  He was regularly on espn radio station in the morning and he had a sat am call in show that was on when there wasn’t a conflict with mariners games.
