Jim Brown has passed away at the age of 87. A titanic figure in the world of sports, the former Cleveland Browns fullback has been inducted into both the NCAA Hall of Fame and the NFL Hall of Fame. On top of his sports stardom, Brown was a staunch Civil Rights activist, a fact that was highlighted by the 2020 movie One Night in Miami, which depicted an evening he spent in the company of Malcolm X, Sam Cooke, and Muhammad Ali, in which he was played by Aldis Hodge.
The post, seen above, contained a message from Brown's wife Monique Brown, who confirmed that he passed away last night at his home in L.A. at the age of 87. In her heartfelt message, she assured that "he passed peacefully" and honored the fact that he was "a loving and wonderful husband, father, and grandfather."
