New details surrounding Charles Johnson's death emerged weeks after he was found dead.

On July 17, former NFL wide receiver and University of Colorado star was found dead in a hotel room. The cause of his death was not disclosed after his passing, and it remains unknown as of press time.

However, the new police records revealed further details about his death.

The documents, obtained by USA TODAY Sports, revealed that Johnson's wife reported him missing the day before he was found dead in a hotel room on July 17.

The police are still looking into what happened to the late athlete, but they have since dismissed the talks about potential foul play involved in his passing.

The same news outlet reported that the Raleigh police officers responded to a call for a welfare check on July 17 at 1:25 p.m. They visited the local Hampton Inn after an occupant reportedly failed to check out of the room.

"Hotel staff and RPD officers responded and located a deceased subject in the room. The preliminary investigation indicates there were no signs of foul play. It is still an open and ongoing death investigation," the police said.

Following his death, an overwhelming number of tributes poured as they remembered his career.

WNCN-TV, per Fox News, reported that Johnson was working as an assistant athletic director at Heritage High School at the time of his death. But before that, he had a flourishing career in the NFL.

In 1994, the Pittsburgh Steelers selected him at the No. 17 pick during the draft out of Colorado. Johnson was then paired with Kordell Steward, his college teammate, for a few seasons.

From that year until 1998, he played for the Steelers and recorded 247 catches for 3,400 yards and 15 touchdowns. In 1996, he caught 60 passes for 1,008 with three touchdowns.

In 1999, he moved forward with the Philadelphia Eagles and managed to have 90 catches for 1,056 yards and eight touchdowns after playing with them for two seasons.

Johnson joined the Patriots in 2001 and won a Super Bowl alongside Tom Brady. For the last time before his retirement, he played for Buffalo Bills in 2002.
