Elbert Jovante Woods, the 16-year-old son of former Cincinnati Bengals star running back Ickey Woods, died at 8:30 p.m., Saturday, at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, three days after collapsing at his home from an asthma attack.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Ickey and his family. I've met him a couple of times at PBS and he was always a gentleman and a decent person to interact with. It's a real shame and tragedy for the Woods family and the Princeton community.

RIP Jovante.

The Bengals plan to honor the memory of Jovante Woods Sunday night at Paul Brown Stadium before the 7 p.m. preseason game against Denver with a moment of silence.

In a statement Bengals president Mike Brown called the 16-year-old son of former running back Ickey Woods "a gifted athlete and a fine student." "His loss is a tragedy that saddens all of us associated with the Bengals. We extend our deepest condolences to Ickey and his family," the statement said.
