Former Penn State football player Bani Gbadyu has died at the age of 34 due to complications from pancreatic cancer, according to multiple reports.

The four-year player appeared in 48 games for Penn State, totaling 118 tackles (52 solo) with an interception and a forced fumble.

Gbadyu is survived by a wife and three children.
