COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) Police say a missing Ohio State football player has been found dead, apparently of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Police tell media outlets the body of 22-year-old Kosta Karageorge (KOH-stah KAHR-ah-jorj) was found near the campus Sunday. The senior defensive tackle was last seen at his apartment in Columbus early Wednesday, when his roommates said he left to go on a walk.
His mother told authorities he has had several concussions and a few spells of being extremely confused. According to a police report, she said Karageorge texted her the morning he disappeared and said, I am sorry if I am an embarrassment.
Karageorge is a former Buckeyes wrestler who joined the football team as a walk-on this season.
