Phillips’ cellmate at Kern Valley State Prison in Fresno was found lifeless early Saturday and later pronounced dead, a prison spokesman said in a statement.

Phillips, 39, was once one of the nation’s top college football players at Nebraska. He played for the St. Louis Rams, until being released in 1997 for insubordination.
