AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - Texas linebacker Jake Ehlinger, the younger brother of former Longhorns quarterback Sam Ehlinger, has been found dead near the Austin campus.
Police say officers responded to a call shortly after noon Thursday.
Police did not detail how they found him, but said the death is not considered suspicious. No cause of death was immediately released.
The 20-year-old had not played the last two seasons.
Sam Ehlinger was drafted last week by the Indianapolis Colts.
Their father, Ross, died in 2013 while competing in a San Francisco triathlon at age 46.
