Kevin,A former third round pick at FB of the Pats in 1994 has ALS and as we all know that almost always spells doom for the person afflicted by it.

I remember Kevin as a pretty solid player for us and it would not hurt to say a few silent prayers for Kevin's life to at least stick around with us longer then they think.

Actually KT was a 3rd rounder in 1992.

Regardless, his story is a sad one.

I remember KT well. He was one of my favorites.. I hated it when the Pats let him go to the Eagles..

My prayers go out to him and his family.

I wonder if it's really ALS, which is a really rare disease. Supposedly symptoms of concussion syndrome mimic ALS. It might not matter as to the prognosis though.

Same here. Well said. Loved the player; hated to see him go.

Prayers for him and his family.

That sucks.

I'm not too familiar with him, except that at home I have the New England Patriots Greatest Hits CD and there's a clip of him catching a game-winning pass in a big comeback. Off the top of my head I can't remember if it was against the Vikings or the Dolphins but I'm sure someone here can tell us.

I really need a new sig pic

Bringing you snarky commentary since 2008.

I was 9 when we drafted him anything I remember about football before that is pretty vague. I know I still have quite a few of his football cards from my childhood collection. Sad news, best wishes.

Sad to hear. Best wishes to KT and his family. He did contribute well to this team when he was here.
