BALTIMORE, MD (SNN-TV) – Tony Siragusa, the NFL defensive tackle who became one of the game’s biggest players and personalities, died Wednesday at the age of 55. The cause of Siragusa’s death was not immediately available.

Affectionately known as “Goose,” Siragusa served as a vital cog in the middle of the Baltimore Ravens’ historic 2000 defense, which spearheaded the franchise’s first Super Bowl title that same season.

 Before joining the Ravens as a free agent in 1997, Siragusa spent the first seven seasons of his career with the Indianapolis Colts. 

After his retirement in 2001, Siragusa was a sideline analyst for Fox Sports from 2003 until 2015.
