Former NFL offensive lineman Damion Cook died Friday of a heart attack at the age of 36.

Cook's alma mater, Bethune-Cookman, confirmed his death via Twitter:

Initially signed by the Baltimore Ravens as an undrafted rookie, Cook spent the 2001 season with the Chicago Bears before returning to Baltimore from 2002-04. He also had stints with the Miami Dolphins, Cleveland Browns, and Detroit Lions, appearing in 26 games and making 10 starts.

Additionally, Cook spent time with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats of the Canadian Football League, the Tampa Bay Storm of the Arena League, and the Omaha Nighthawks of the United Football League.

Cook is perhaps best remembered for his Ray Lewis impersonation on Hard Knocks:
