Former Washington defensive tackle Dave Butz, who won two Super Bowls with the team, has died at 72, the Commanders announced Friday.

"Lost a dear friend today. Dave Butz. Dave, Mark Mosley and I used to ride to games together. A true gentle giant. Rest In Peace my friend," former teammate Joe TheismannButz started his career with the St. Louis Cardinals, who made him a first-round draft selection in 1973. But he is best known for his time in Washington, where he spent 14 seasons and helped win two Super Bowl titles.

He was also one of the biggest players during his time in the league, standing 6'8" and weighing well over 300 pounds. Butz made the Pro Bowl in 1983, also earning first-team All-Pro honors that same season after recording a career-high 11.5 sacks. He was selected to the NFL's All-Decade Team of the 1980's and inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2014.
