Remembering Tony Siragusa: Super Bowl winner dies at age 55One of the biggest personalities in the history of the NFL, Tony Siragusa, . The former defensive tackle spent 12 years in the NFL and ended up winning a ring in 2000 with the Ravens.Let's take a look back at Siragusa's life and career:Siragusa's NFL career almost never happened. After tearing his ACL coming out of college, Siragusa didn't even get drafted in 1990 AND he almost didn't get signed. According to a story , Siragusa only ended up getting a contract from the Colts after selling himself as backup long snapper, which is probably why he ended up getting backup long snapper money. Siragusa got just Colin Thompson Jersey a $1,000 signing bonus with his first contract.Siragusa's first playoff appearance.The Colts struggled during most of Siragusa's seven years with the team, but they did finally break through in 1995 with an AFC title game appearance, where they would lose to the . During the 1995 season, Siragusa started 14 games and helped anchor a defense that gave up the fifth-fewest points in the NFL.Siragusa signs with the Ravens in 1997. The "Goose" spent the final five seasons of his career in Baltimore and his decision to sign with the Ravens paid off in 2000 when he won his first and only Super Bowl ring. The 2000 Ravens defense is one of the best in NFL history and Siragusa played a big part of in that. Siragusa would plug up the middle, which opened the door for Ray Lewis to have a huge season. The 2000 Ravens defense surrendered just 165 points and 970 rushing yards, which are still NFL records for a 16-game season. Lewis was one of the many who shared their condolences for Siragusa on Wednesday. "This is a tough one," Lewis said. "I love Goose like a brother. From the first day we met, I knew that life was different. I knew he was someone who would change my life forever."Siragusa was just as famous after football. Pat Elflein Jersey Although Siragusa made a name for himself during his NFL career, he might be even more known for what he did after retiring from the league in 2001. From 2003 to 2015, Siragusa worked for Fox Sports covering the NFL. As if that's not enough, he also took several acting roles that included appearances in both "The Sopranos" and Spike Lee's "25th Hour."Siragusa was also one of the reasons that "Hard Knocks" took off as a TV show. Back in 2001, the Ravens were the first team ever featured and Siragusa ended up stealing the show. If , you can see a clip of time where Siragusa locked Shannon Sharpe and the other Baltimore tight ends in their meeting room.The Goose was 55 and his cause of death is still being investigated. 3. Roger Goodell gets grilled by Congre s; Daniel Snyder hit with subpoenaIt's not often that you see the NFL commi sioner testifying at a congre sional hearing, but that's exactly what happened on Wednesday. For roughly 90 minutes yesterday, Roger Goodell was forced to answer questions under oath about the workplace misconduct allegations that have been made against the . The House Oversight Committee was also hoping that Daniel Snyder would answer questions under oath, but he was unable to attend because he was hanging out on his super yacht in France.Here's a brief look at :Goodell admitted the Commanders workplace situation was a disaster.During the hearing Goodell was asked if Washington had the "worst and most toxic" workplace he's seen in his time as commi sioner and here's what he had to Carolina Panthers Home Office say, "I have not seen a workplace in the NFL that is anywhere near what we saw in the context of that period of time for the Washington Commanders." That's a yes.Goodell says Snyder never told him about an alleged sexual a sault from 2009.According story that was published on Tuesday, there was an allegation of sexual a sault against Snyder that was made in 2009. All sexual a sault allegations are supposed to be reported to the NFL, but Goodell said that Snyder never told him about it, which would be a violation of the NFL's personal conduct policy. According to the Post, the team conducted its own investigation that was run by Snyder's general counsel, which would seem to be a conflict of interest.Goodell says the NFL won't be releasing the findings of the investigation into the Commanders.When the NFL punished the Commanders last July, which included a $10 million fine and a suspension of Snyder, no one knew the extent of the league's findings into Washington's workplace misconduct because the NFL never released a written report of the investigation. The NFL did release a written report for the ' bullying scandal and another one for Deflategate, but for some reason, the league refused to release one for this
