Eariler this week, Jets defensive lineman Kony Ealy was missing from practice for what the team was only call an excused absence. After a stellar effort that saw Ealy swat down three Blake Bortles passes, intercepting one of them, the team revealed why the lineman was away, and it’s a heartbreaking situation.
The team’s official twitter feed announced that Ealy’s sister lost her life earlier in the week but did not elaborate any further.
