Detroit/München - Es gibt Tage, an denen rückt der Sport in den Hintergrund. Für die Detroit Lions und vor allem für Wide Receiver Marvin Jones war das am vergangenen Wochenende der Fall. Der 29-Jährige, der aufgrund einer Knöchelverletzung nach Week 14 auf die Injury Reserve List gesetzt wurde, hat einen schweren Verlust zu beklagen: Sein erst sechs Monate alter Sohn Marlo verstarb am Freitag plötzlich. Die Lions gaben dies am Wochenende per Instagram bekannt.

Die Lions schreiben: "Heute früh wurden wir von Marvin und Jazmyn Jones über den plötzlichen Tod ihres jüngsten Sohnes Marlo informiert. Die Lions werden Marvin und Jazmyn in dieser schwierigen Zeit voll unterstützen. Marvin und Jazmyn verkörpern die wahre Bedeutung einer Familie, und das Beispiel, das sie gesetzt haben, hat viele in unserer Gemeinschaft inspiriert. Wir danken allen für die Unterstützung. Im Namen der Familie Jones bitten wir alle darum, ihre Privatsphäre zu respektieren."

Die Todesursache wurde nicht bekanntgegeben. Der bewegende Abschiedsbrief, den Marvin Jones auf seinem Instagram-Profil zusammen mit einem Foto publizierte, lässt vermuten, dass das Baby schon länger unter gesundheitlichen Problemen litt. Jones schreibt: "Gestern hat der Herr ein Stück Herz meiner Familie nach Hause gerufen, Marlo. Es ist kaum zu glauben, dass unser kleiner Engel, unser Kämpfer vom ersten Tag an, unser Sohn "Marlito", leider verstorben ist und nicht mehr bei uns ist. Marlo, die Freude, die du uns jeden Tag mit diesem Lächeln und dieser Energie gebracht hast, war wie der Himmel auf Erden. Du wirst immer in unseren Herzen sein. Wir werden immer an Dich denken."

Weiter schreibt er: "Wir hatten nicht die Gelegenheit, deine ersten Worte zu hören (es wäre auch auf Spanisch gewesen). Wir haben nicht mitbekommen, dass du mit deinen Brüdern und deiner Schwester gerannt bist - du bist jeden Tag mit deinen Augen mit ihnen mitgerannt. Wir wissen, dass alles, was wir von nun an tun werden, gemeinsam mit dir geschehen wird. Bei jedem Schritt, den wir unternehmen, wirst du bei uns sein. Wann immer wir einen schlechten Tag haben, werden wir an dein Lächeln denken. Wir vermissen dich schon jetzt, Kumpel, und werden dich für immer lieben. Ruhe dich friedlich aus, unser süßer Junge. Du hast nun deine Flügel bekommen."

Marvin und Jazmyn Jones haben fünf gemeinsame Kinder. Erst an Weihnachten postete die Familie bei Instagram ein Video, in dem die Familie fröhlich "Merry Christmas" wünscht. Der kleine Marlo liegt friedlich im Arm seines großen Bruders.

Niemand konnte zu diesem Zeitpunkt ahnen, dass kurze Zeit später das Schicksal das Leben dieser Familie auf tragischste Art verändern würde.

Here's a link to the video Jones posted on Christmas in which his little boy is still very much alive.

No idea. The cause of death hasn't been released. But Jones implies in his Instagram tribute that the little guy had been sick his entire life, so I'm guessing some sort of congenital disease.

Zero2Cool (24-Jan) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.
dfosterf (24-Jan) : I'm going with a combination of the two.
beast (24-Jan) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC
Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no
Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.
beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?
beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you
wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.
wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.
wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious
beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere
beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.
beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.
beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...
beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered
wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.
wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.
wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.
