as someone who's dealt with multiple heat strokes, if that is what this is, I can tell u it's an extremely frightening expirience. My thoughts and best wishes go towards his family and friends.

I remember Herrion from last years camp. HHerrion was a strong run blocker but was polished enough to be kept on the active roster because of his pass blocking inexperience

Larry Allen took this guy under his wing and liked him

God rest his soul

Re: Thomas Herrion, offensive lineman for 49ers dies after game

At such a young age, you have to think that there was some kind of ongoing condition in his body that caused him to collapse and die. It was cool and relatively dry during the game so heat stroke is an unlikely cause. (Yes, I know that dehydration can occur in conditions less than a heat index of 105; but with temps in the low 60s, that is at least a "less likely" situation than it would be in camp "two-a-days" when the temps are in the 90s.)

RIP!
