Thoughts are with Devan Stringer, after the passing of his daughter Noelle, who was born on Aug. 27. #AppState

I pray this young man is doing the best he can.

Sending prayers to Devan Stringer #11 and his family.

Here's a statement from life long friend Deshaun Watson (Clemson QB).

Came home and saw this after spending a great morning with my son. Unthinkably tragic.

Devan Stringer is a terrific player, but let's hope he takes as much time as he needs.

Bigger than football, indeed. My heart aches for Devan and his family. Clemson's QB (Devan's childhood friend) even mentioned Devan's loss in his interview this morning. There are no words ... only prayers.

Unbelievably sad. Hope Devan can make it Saturday to be with his team (not expecting him to play, just to be around a tight-knit group) but totally understand if he doesn't feel up to it.

Prayers are with the Stringer family.

Devan Stringer asked to make a statement to the press "Brant Wilkerson" at practice today.
Here is what Brant posted on his Twitter account about 4 hours ago.
