    "The Penn State football family would like to offer sincere condolences to
    the family and friends of letterman Adam Gress," Penn State said in a statement. "His commitment to this university and this program will never
    be forgotten."

    Several of his former teammates expressed their condolences in the wake of
    the news:

    "This is just awful news," former PSU teammate and fellow lineman Eric
    Shrive told Mark Brennan of 247Sports.com. "He was such great guy and so dedicated to the program. He was friends with everybody, and he worked so hard."

    Gress spent five years with the Nittany Lions, starting for the team in
    2013. He signed as an undrafted free agent with the New York Giants in
    2014 but didn't make the team.
