Former NFL star and broadcaster, O.J. Simpson whose athletic achievements and fame were eclipsed by his 1995 acquittal in the brutal killings of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman, has died of cancer aged 76.
A post from his family on Simpson’s verified X account on Thursday morning said: “On April 10th, our father, Orenthal James Simpson, succumbed to his battle with cancer.
“He was surrounded by his children and grandchildren. During this time of transition, his family asks that you please respect their wishes for privacy and grace.”
OJ Simpson earned a reputation as one of the most exceptional running backs in NFL history during his ten-year tenure with the Buffalo Bills and San Francisco 49ers.
Following his football career, Simpson transitioned into acting, gracing both the big and small screens with his presence in numerous films and television series.
