Tom Dempsey meninggal dunia karena terinfeksi virus corona.

Menurut keterangan putrinya, Ashley Dempsey, Tom Dempsey didiagnosis terserang Covid-19 pada Senin (30/3/2020) waktu AS.

Adapun selain Covid-19, pria 73 tahun tersebut juga memiliki penyakit alzheimer dan demensia.

Pemilik klub New Orleans Saints, Gayle Benson, mengatakan bahwa Tom Dempsey merupakan sosok yang luar biasa.

Menurut Gayle Benson, Tom Dempsey adalah orang yang punya tekad kuat dan siap menyingkirkan apa pun yang menghalangi impiannya.

New Orleans Saints merupakan klub pertama yang dibela Dempsey dalam NFL. Dempsey berseragam Saints pada 1969-1970.

Dempsey menghabiskan hari tuanya dan meninggal di New Orleans.

Meski punya keterikatan yang kuat dengan kota yang pernah hancur akibat Badai Katrina tersebut, New Orleans Saints bukanlah tim terlama yang dibela Dempsey.

Philadelphia Eagles adalah klub terlama yang disinggahi Dempsey. Ia tinggal di Philadelhia pada 1971 hingga 1974.

“Keluarga New Orleans Saints merasa sangat sedih dengan kepergiannya (Tom Dempsey). Dia adalah sosok yang penuh semangat dan punya spirit tinggi dalam hidupnya,” ujar Gayle Benson.

Dempsey sesempat memegang rekor mencetak field goal terjauh di NFL selama 43 tahun.

Kesukseannya mencetak field goal dari jarak 63 yard (sekitar 57,61 meter) saat membela New Orleans Saints melawan Detroit Lions di Tulane Stadium, New Orleans, 8 November 1970 seolah sulit dilampaui pemain lain.

Namun, rekor tersebut akhirnya terpecahkan pada 8 Desember 2013. Adalah pemain Denver Broncos, Matt Prater, yang akhirnya menggeser Dempsey.

Saat itu, pemain yang kini membela Detroit Lions tersebut sukses membuat gol dari jarak 64 yard (sekitar 58,82 meter).
