An aspiring football star and ex-Indian River High School player had passed away in a tragic car crash, hours after posting about his future.

24-year-old Jaquan Yulee was declared dead at the scene of the crash late Tuesday when officers located his car flipped on its roof.

The victim was alone at the time of the deadly crash, just after 7 p.m. A few hours earlier, he took to Twitter to speak about his plans for the future.
