O.J. Simpson’s family announced on social media Thursday morning that he has died at the age of 76. “On April 10th, our father, Orenthal James Simpson, succumbed to his battle with cancer, He was surrounded by his children and grandchildren.” This quote is from a post on X.
Simpson’s fame as an NFL star was overshadowed during his murder trail for the double-murder of his ex-wife and her friend in the 1990s. He was acquitted of the murder charges.

He was one exciting running back. One of the best the Bills ever had. It’s too bad he went downhill the way he did. He’s still beloved (with regrets, of course) here in Buffalo.

He did slide downhill, in a big way. However, you can’t take away from his talent shown on the field.
