Carl Weathers died at age 76. Though he was famous for his character in the Rocky series, Apollo Creed, he played in the NFL around 1970. He was an undrafted LB and played for the Oakland Raiders.

You know you’re having a bad week when you die two days in a row. 

Even worse it was due to a Russian boxer and a dead alligator's head.

Breaks my heart. Good man, amd Rocky wouldn't be Rocky if Weathers  wasn't Apallo.

I was going to mention that. I just rewatched Arrested Development a few weeks ago.

Definitely someone I connected with as I watched him act as a child and teen. It was fun to show my son who he was when we watched him in his Mandalorin character together too.

 

Stallone's tribute of Weathers on YouTube was very sincere and personal.
