Legendary SMU and Dallas Cowboys quarterback Don Meredith passed away Sunday at Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center in Santa Fe, N.M. at age 72. Reports have cited a brain hemorrhage as a possible cause of death but there has been no official statement at this time.
“Don Meredith brought honor to his alma mater through his tremendous achievements as a student-athlete and then as a professional,” SMU President R. Gerald Turner said in a release.
