University of Texas linebacker Jake Ehlinger, the younger brother of former Longhorns quarterback Sam Ehlinger, was found dead Thursday, Austin police officials said.
Police said they received a call at 12:18 p.m. and found Jake Ehlinger in the 1200 block of West 22nd Street. Authorities did not specify how they found him but did say his death is not considered suspicious.
No cause of death or other details were released.
Ehlinger, who arrived at Texas in 2019 after his high school playing career at Westlake, did not play the last two seasons.
Sam Ehlinger was drafted by the Indianapolis Colts in the sixth round of the NFL draft Saturday. Jake’s face was accidentally shown on the NFL Network where a photo of Sam was supposed to be, and Sam loved it.
“Good, good,” Sam said with a huge grin during his availability with reporters. “Jake deserves all the screen time you can get.”

What could possibly be suspicious about a ~20 year old randomly found dead?
I guess nothing at all as they say

if it's not suspicious, these seem like the only 2 options

This is crazy. But when somebody young dies like this i always think suicide or overdose. Hate this for the family. Sam is a great kid. Hope he pulls through this.

Only other option would be some known medical condition they kept quiet that caught up with him

Think they would have figured that out considering their dad died from a heart attack while training for a triathlon 8 years ago. No way they would have risked that.
Just an awful situation. Feel so bad for their family.

Covid, heart attack, pneumonia, lung failure randomly, overheated
I mean there are a million legitimate sad reasons someone passes away
