The Indianapolis Colts' honored late kicker Rob Bironas on Sunday before the team's game against the Titans.

Colts long snapper Matt Overton, punter Pat McAfee and kicker Adam Vinatieri wore T-shirts that said "RIP RB 2." 

Bironas died in a car crash last Sunday. He was 36. According to a report in The Tennesseean, Bironas reportedly tried to run a woman off the road moments before his fatal accident. 

Bironas played nine seasons in the NFL, all with the Titans. He made a franchise-record 11 winning field goals during his career, and kicked an NFL single-game record eight field goals in a 2007 Tennessee victory over the Houston Texans.
