The father of Tennessee Titans cornerback Caleb Farley, Robert Farley, died in an explosion at a house owned by the NFL player late Monday night, according to Kent Green, Director of Fire Services and Emergency Management for Iredell County. He was 61.

Farley, 24, was not present at the house at the time of the explosion, but another unidentified male was injured, according to officials. He was taken to a hospital in Charlotte, North Carolina, with non-life-threatening injuries. Queen City News reported Farley was with his family speaking to authorities at the scene Tuesday morning.

The cause of the explosion is still under investigation but foul play is not suspected, according to the Iredell County Fire Marshal’s Office. Neighbors told Queen City News they smelled gas and heard "a loud explosion" around 11:55 p.m. Monday. Authorities claim the house was completely leveled by the explosion.
