Tony Siragusa dies at 55: Former Colts and Ravens DT, nicknamed 'Goose', won Super Bowl with Baltimore

By: Jordan Dajani

Former NFL defensive tackle Tony Siragusa died on Wednesday, according to the Baltimore Ravens. He was 55. "Goose," as his fans would call him, played for the Indianapolis Colts for seven seasons from 1990 to 1996, and then signed with the Ravens in 1997. He was a member of Baltimore's Super Bowl XXXV team, and retired following the 2001 season.

"I'm heart broken as is all of Colts Nation," Colts owner Jim Irsay tweeted. The 6-foot-3, 330-plus pound defender went undrafted out of Pittsburgh in 1990, but found a home in Indy and established himself as an anchor on the interior. In 169 career games, Siragusa racked up 564 combined tackles and 22 sacks.
