Former NFL coach and broadcaster John Madden has passed away at the age of 85.

The NFL made the announcement earlier on Tuesday about Madden’s death.

“Nobody loved football more than Coach,” NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement Tuesday evening. “He was football. He was an incredible sounding board to me and so many others.”

“There will never be another John Madden, and we will forever be indebted to him for all he did to make football and the NFL what it is today.”

Madden had a great coaching record standing at 103-32-7 as he was elected into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2006.
