Quote:The girlfriend of Cleveland Browns defensive end Chris Smith was killed Wednesday morning in a car accident, the NFL team said in a statement.
Petara Cordero was in Smith's 2019 Lamborghini when the couple pulled over to the side of I-90 West in Cleveland around 2 a.m. after a tire blew. The car veered left and hit the median.
Without significant injuries, Cordero got out of the car. Shortly after, a woman in a 2017 Mazda 3 hit the passenger's side of Smith's car and Cordero, who was standing on the shoulder, Cleveland police said in a statement to CNN.

Just terrible....she was 26 years old. 

Prayers for our ex-player. Wish him the best.

That's horrible.  Such a young age and starting life/family.

That has to be tough for him.  Although if (God forbid) something happened to my wife I would probably want to go out to our property and get on my tractor.  Doing something familiar is probably good therapy.

I saw this too.  I feel for him.  I'll be a Browns fan and Chris Smith fan tonight.
