Longtime Atlanta Falcons defensive end and Pro Football Hall of Famer Claude Humphrey has died at the age of 77.
Humphrey passed away on Friday, the Pro Football Hall of Fame announced on Saturday.
"The entire Pro Football Hall of Fame family mourns the passing of Claude Humphrey," Pro Football Hall of Fame President Jim Porter said in a statement.

The Hall of Fame flag will be flown at half-staff in Claude's memory."
After recent burglaries at homes of professional athletes – including Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce – the NFL and NBA have issued security memos to teams and players warning that “organized and skilled groups” are increasingly targeting players’ residences for such crimes.
