Search for missing former Texas Longhorns player ends with ‘tragic and devastating’ news
Former Texas Longhorns running back Jaden Hullaby has reportedly been found dead. No details have been given regarding the cause of death, but his family reported him missing on Sunday. He had last been seen in Dallas on Friday. His uncle tweeted asking for help in finding his nephew, according to a Longhorns Nation report. “Y’all we need prayers our way,” he wrote. “Jaden has been missing since Friday evening. We can’t track any of his devices.
“That’s not him at all!” he added. “He always answers his calls.”
Hullaby was a member of Texas’ 2020 recruiting class. He transferred to New Mexico last year where he was moved to tight end.
His brother, Texas Tech defensive back Landon Hullaby, tweeted out a heartbreaking post showing the two together as children.
He wrote, “Forever living through you big brudda.” “I have you and the family for eternity, and I adore you so much.” I promise. King, go get some rest.
Steve Sarkisian, the head coach of Texas, also released a statement.
“Learning of Jaden’s passing is such tragic and devastating news,” he wrote. We all enjoyed being around, coaching, and spending time with him because he was a wonderful person. We would want to extend our sincere sympathies to his family, friends, and teammates during this extremely trying time. His family is in our thoughts and prayers.
