DeHaven spent 30 seasons in the NFL as a special teams coordinator, most recently with the Carolina Panthers.

He was a member of the Buffalo Bills team on the wrong end of the Music City Miracle. He also spent time with the San Francisco 49ers, Dallas Cowboys and Seattle Seahawks.

Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.
