Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets defensive lineman Brandon Adams died Saturday, the school announced.

"Our entire Georgia Tech football family is heartbroken by the news of Brandonโ€™s passing," head coach Geoff Collins said in a statement. "In the short time that I have had the privilege and honor of knowing Brandon, I admired and respected him, first and foremost as a terrific human being, but also as an outstanding teammate and leader."

Adams, 21, played three years for Georgia Tech. He had 41 total tackles and 6.5 tackles for loss in 33 games.

Theย Atlanta Journal-Constitution'sย Ken Sugiuraย praised Adams, describing him as "a force in the interior, often requiring double-teams to keep him from pushing centers into the pocket."ย Sugiura added that theย Brentwood, Tennessee, native was one of the top Yellow Jackets to watch during the team's spring practices.
