Former teammate Boomer Esiason released a statement on Nagle via the Jets:
“Browning was a great guy,” former Jets QB Boomer Esiason said Friday of his Green & White teammate of 1993. “He had an infectious laugh and was so much fun to be around. We often competed against each other while also showing respect for one another. I will always remember the laughter and infectious spirit Browning had and how much he enjoyed out-driving me on the golf course. May he rest in peace knowing he lived an impactful life.”
Nagle played in New York from 1991 to 1993. He started 13 games for the team in 1992 and also made one start for the Indianapolis Colts in 1994.
