ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Authorities in Colorado say Denver Broncos and former South Carolina wide receiver Kenny McKinley has been found dead in his home in an apparent suicide. <br />
<br />
Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson says authorities were called to McKinley's home in Centennial on Monday and found his body in the second-floor master bedroom. He says detectives believe McKinley was killed by an self-inflicted gunshot wound. <br />
<br />
McKinley played quarterback for South Cobb High School in Austell. <br />
<br />
McKinley's death is the latest in a series for tragedies for the Broncos since 2007. Cornerback Darrent Williams was slain in a drive-by shooting on New Year's Day 2007 and three months later backup running back Damien Nash collapsed and died after a charity basketball game in St. Louis.
