NFL legend John Madden “unexpectedly” died Tuesday morning at the age of 85.

“Earlier today we received the sad news that the great John Madden died unexpectedly this morning. He was 85,” the NFL said on Tuesday afternoon.

“On behalf of the entire NFL family, we extend our condolences to Virginia, Mike, Joe and their families,” said NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. “We all know him as the Hall of Fame coach of the Oakland Raiders and broadcaster who worked for every major network, but more than anything, he was a devoted husband, father and grandfather.”
