Cal Football Player Bryce Turner Dies at Age 20

Bryce Turner, a redshirt sophomore cornerback at the University of California, died this week at the age of 20.

Per a statement from his family (h/t Rusty Simmons of the San Francisco Chronicle), Turner had been hospitalized after suffering a "medical emergency" during a non-team workout last week. His cause of death has not been revealed.

Turner's family said in a statement released on Thursday the medical emergency occurred near their home in Southern California.

After Turner's hospitalization, Cal head coach Justin Wilcox said in a separate statement the school would "do everything we can to support Bryce and his family during this difficult time."

Turner transferred to Cal after spending his freshman season at Long Beach City College. He made his lone appearance for the Golden Bears during a Sept. 15 win over Idaho State and tallied one tackle in the 45-23 victory.
