NEW YORK -- Pro Football Hall of Famer Frank Gifford has died. He was 84.
In a statement released by NBC News on Sunday, his family said Gifford died suddenly at his Connecticut home of natural causes that morning.
A versatile star on both offense and defense in an era when NFL players were starting to specialize, Gifford went on to a successful second career as a broadcaster on "Monday Night Football."
Gifford was the NFL's Most Valuable Player in 1956 when he led the New York Giants to a league championship.
His family says in the statement: "We rejoice in the extraordinary life he was privileged to live, and we feel grateful and blessed to have been loved by such an amazing human being."
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

It is amazing he lived to this age and was a well known sports writer and hope his family get's through this tough time and come out of it which, will take time and the memories will be there always. I reckon that he was a good man and fans and others will remember him for a long time, and at least it was natural causes and not from an accident or pain which can happen at that age. It is amazing that he was well known and age and the body can take a toll on the person and looked really fit, and healthy as well which let him enjoy his golden years in peace and quiet.
