Further tests will be conducted to determine what killed Dallas Cowboys running back Ennis Haywood after an autopsy Monday failed to show a cause of death, a medical examiner's office spokeswoman said.

Haywood, an undrafted free agent from Iowa State who participated in the Cowboys' three-day mini-camp, completed four 300-yard sprints on Friday with 90 seconds' rest between each run. He was expected to compete for a roster spot at halfback.

His wife, Crystal, is expecting the couple's second child in a couple of weeks.

Such a sad story, I wonder how long it will take to determine the cause of death.

Woah first time i heard about this. It sad when things happen like this. I remember what happened a couple of years back with Corey Stringer of the Vikings. That was sad also.
