Arizona Cardinals cornerback Jeff Gladney, who died alongside his girlfriend in a horrific car crash in Dallas, Texas, was reportedly behind the wheel and speeding when he lost control of his vehicle, police said. <\/p>\n

Dallas County Police said Gladney, 25, was driving in a white Mercedes SUV with his girlfriend, Andrea Mercedes Palacio, 26, when he clipped another car from behind at around 2:30 am Monday morning, Fox 4 reported. <\/p>\n

The SUV then smashed into a pillar, killing Gladney, who is survived by a two-year-old son from a previous relationship, and Palacios. The two unidentified passengers in the other car did not suffer any major injury, according to police.<\/p>\n

Images of the aftermath show the mangled car flipped upside down beside the pillar it struck, with tires and pieces of the SUV littered everywhere. <\/p>\n

No information has been given about whether or not Gladney – who was let go by the Minnesota Vikings in 2021 after being accused of ‘intentionally, knowingly and recklessly’ applying pressure to an ex-girlfriend’s neck and throat – was under the influence of drugs or alcohol at the time of the crash. <\/p>\n
