Jordan Devey, an offensive lineman who captured a championship during his time with the New England Patriots, has died at 38, his family confirmed Thursday through a fundraising campaign. The former player’s passing resulted from suicide, according to the announcement, leaving loved ones to confront what the family described as an emotionally devastating loss.

Devey spent recent years in Idaho, serving as a coach at Eagle High School while earning respect within the local community. The GoFundMe tribute highlighted his involvement as a volunteer coach for his children’s athletic programs and his mentorship of high school athletes, noting he was regarded as a role model and friend by those he worked with daily.

His widow, Linsey, posted to Instagram earlier this week marking what would have been their 15th wedding anniversary, sharing memories of their life together and their four children. The post included hospital photos and wedding images alongside a deeply personal message reflecting on their shared experiences and his final words to her.

Devey’s professional career spanned multiple franchises after he began on the Baltimore Ravens practice squad. Signed by New England in 2014, he appeared in six games and won Super Bowl XLIX before moves to San Francisco, Kansas City, Oakland/Las Vegas, and Buffalo, starting 21 of his 44 total career games.

A distinction unique to Devey involves his career trajectory: he remains the only player in NFL history to have blocked for quarterbacks Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes, and Josh Allen across different teams.
