Max Tuerk, an All-American center at USC who was drafted by the San Diego Chargers, has died, USC announced Sunday. He was 26.

The university did not say when Tuerk died nor did it cite a cause of death in its announcement on Twitter.

Following a standout career at Santa Margarita High, Tuerk played for USC from 2012 to 2015. He was a Freshman All-American in 2012 and a All-Pac-12 first-team selection in 2014. The Chargers selected the Trabuco Canyon native in the third round of the 2016 NFL draft, but he didn’t appear in a single game as a rookie. Before his second season, he was suspended four games for violating the NFL’s policy on performance-enhancing substances.

Tuerk was signed by the Arizona Cardinals off the Chargers’ practice squad in November 2017, and played in one game with the Cardinals before being cut in April 2018.
