University of South Florida football player Teigan Martin tragically died this week in a horrific car crash in Minnesota, officials said. He was just 20 years old.

According to the Carver County Sheriff’s Office, Martin was involved in a one-vehicle wreck at around 5 AM on Monday on a roadway in Hollywood Township.

Police say when first responders arrived at the crash site … they found a black 2013 BMW M5 that had skidded into a ditch. They ID’ed Martin as the driver … and stated he died on the scene.

Authorities believe Martin’s car had crossed over a lane of traffic, entered the ditch, and rolled over before it came to a stop. They stated speed might have been a factor in the wreck … although they did say Martin was wearing a seatbelt.

It’s not yet known if alcohol played a role … cops say an investigation remains ongoing.

Martin had just joined the USF Bulls’ roster in 2023 — after playing two seasons for Liberty.

The 6-foot-6 athlete had starred at Mayer Lutheran High School in Minnesota prior to his college career … helping lead the team to a state championship in his senior year.
