A former Michigan football player has passed away at the age of 33.
Craig Roh lost his battle with cancer this week, per his wife Chelsea.
“I wanted to let all of his followers know that after an 18-month battle with Stage IV colon cancer, God brought Craig home on Monday, February 26th. Craig was not very public with his battle, as he truly just wanted to focus on bringing the best content and building the best products he could. He laid out a timeline for his business so stay tuned… Many have asked how they can help, I’ve attached our GoFundMe to this post,” she tweeted .
She also shared a GoFundMe page to help with the family’s medical expenses.
Shortly after Chelsea put this tweet out, Michigan head coach Sherrone Moore gave his condolences.
“I am saddened to hear about the passing of former defensive end Craig Roh, our program’s all-time leader in career starts. My heart goes out to his family during this difficult time. The entire Roh family is in my thoughts and prayers and we hope for peace and comfort for all who knew this great Wolverine,” Moore tweeted .
Roh played on the defensive line for Michigan from 2009-12 and racked up 148 total tackles, 10.5 sacks, an interception, and a pass defended.
Our thoughts are with Roh’s family and friends.
