An Alabama high school football player died Saturday after suffering a fatal brain injury during a game, authorities in Selma said.
Caden Tellier, 16, was playing for Morgan Academy private school against Southern Academy Friday night when he sustained the injury.
“It is with a heavy heart that I must inform you that Caden Tellier has gone to be with his Lord and Savior,” school headmaster Dr. Bryan Oliver said.
