Parys Haralson, a DE out of Tennessee who spent 9 seasons in the NFL with 2 different NFC teams, died on 9/13 at age 37.

A 5th round draft pick by the 49ers in 2006, Haralson was on the Niners roster through 2012, although he did not appear in a game that season. He then was dealt to the Saints, where he played for 2 years, retiring after the 2014 campaign.

In the 8 years in which he saw game action, he played in all 16 regular season contests 6 times, and missed only 1 game in 2010. He forced 3 fumbles by opponents in 2011.
