Former Detroit Lions player Stanley Wilson Jr. has 'died after collapsing at a mental hospital earlier this month' according to TMZ.

A defensive-back for the Detroit franchise, Wilson has passed, 'dead at 40', according to TMZ.

The report states Wilson collapsed and died during intake at Metropolitan State Hospital.

According to sources cited by the outlet, 'foul play is not suspected', while 'autopsy results are pending toxicology.'

Last year, Wilson was charged with two felony counts of vandalism and one count of second-degree burglary after breaking into a Hollywood Hills mansion on two separate occasions, most recently taking a bath in an outdoor fountain after moving and damaging items in the home on August 24.

His alleged outdoor bath was said to have caused $5,000 in damage, and Wilson was arrested on both occasions.

After residing in county jail, Wilson was ruled not fit to stand trial and as such was moved to the mental facility on February 1.

Wilson was taken in the third round of the 2005 NFL Draft by the Lions, playing just three seasons.

He suffered a career-ending Achilles tear in 2008 against New England in an exhibition game, prior to the regular season's commencement.
