Last month, it was revealed that former five-star recruit Julian Fleming, who played receiver at Penn State and Ohio State, initially had signed with the Green Bay Packers as an undrafted free agent but failed his physical due to hip and back injuries. When the Packers moved on from Fleming, a local reporter in Pennsylvania stated that there was interest from the San Francisco 49ers, Washington Commanders and Baltimore Ravens to give him a shot at NFL football at some point in 2025.

According to a Pennsylvania state police report, Fleming has now suffered a “suspected serious injury” in an ATV accident where neither he nor his passenger, Alyssa Boyd, wore protective equipment. The injury severity under Boyd’s name was listed as “fatal injury.”

The police report stated that a deer “jumped out in the roadway” when Fleming was driving, leading to a collision. Boyd was pronounced dead at the scene, the deer was found dead and Fleming was taken to Guthrie Troy Community Hospital following the crash.

According to the state police, the crash is currently under further investigation.
