Former NFL wide receiver and special teams player Jacoby Jones has died at the age of 40, multiple media outlets reported Sunday morning.

No cause of death was revealed.

Jones is best known for catching the “Mile High Miracle” on Jan. 12, 2013, as well as recording two touchdowns in the Ravens’ 34-31 victory over the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl XLVII on Feb. 3, 2013.

With his team facing a third-and-30, Jones reeled in a game-tying 70-yard touchdown pass from Joe Flacco with 31 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter of Baltimore’s AFC Divisional playoff game against the host Denver Broncos. Justin Tucker kicked a 47-yard field goal in the second overtime to fuel the Ravens to a 38-35 victory.

Three weeks later, Jones had a 56-yard touchdown catch in the second quarter and added a 108-yard kickoff return to begin the third versus the 49ers. The latter stands as the longest return in postseason history.

An All-Pro returner and Pro Bowl selection in 2012, Jones had 203 catches for 2,733 yards and 14 touchdowns in 128 career games (33 starts) with the Houston Texans (2007-11), Ravens (2012-14), Pittsburgh Steelers (2015) and then-San Diego Chargers (2015).

More recently, Jones served as the receivers coach at Alabama State the past two seasons.
