At the time, cops did not suspect foul play ... and added they were investigating the possibility that Ferguson had suffered an overdose.
He was just 26 years old.
Jaylon was selected by the Ravens in the third round of the 2019 NFL Draft ... and played in 38 total games for the team the last three seasons, tallying 4.5 sacks and 67 tackles.
He had previously starred at Louisiana Tech, where he set the NCAA record for most career sacks.
RIP.
