Texas State’s All-Conference defensive back Khambrail Winters shot and killed in Texas

Khambrail Winters the former standout defensive back was shot and killed in Texas.

According to reports, Police were called to an apartment complex in the City of San Marcos, where a shooting happened around 9:15 at night. People were seen running from the area, and when they arrived they found Winters with a gun shot to his chest.

Police believe it was a drug deal that went wrong. Two people have been arrested but they believe more are involved.

Winters was named an honorable mention at the All-Sun Belt conference in 2019. He played 11 games and started nine contests. He also recorded 52 total tackles with 30 solo stops, broke up four passes and opened his collegiate career with a career-high of eight tackles at Texas A&M.

Winters did not play in 2020 because he was recovering from a torn ACL that happened in fall camp.

This is such a tragic incident.

Texas State Coach Jake Spavital released this statement:

“Our Texas State University football team is deeply saddened by the death of our team member, and friend, Khambrail Winters. I met with players this morning to share the news about Khambrail. We will stand together as a team and support one another during this very difficult time. Our thoughts and condolences are with Khabrail’s family and loved ones.
