Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez was questioned by police in connection with the discovery of a dead body in North Attleboro, Sports Illustrated is reporting.
The report says Hernandez is not considered a suspect in what is being treated as a possible homicide, but that he does have a connection to the dead person, described as a 27-year-old Boston man. The report also says a vehicle rented in his name may be evidence in the case. Police are also seeking to search Hernandez's home.
The body was discovered by a jogger less than a mile from Hernandez's home.
