Catfish Cabin co-founder Charles Ezell dies of COVID-19
Updated Dec 18, 2020;
Charles Ezell, who took a Choctaw County restaurant and turned it into a chain of 35 restaurants around the South, died Tuesday of complications from COVID-19.
The 77-year-old had been sick for two weeks previously but had appeared to be getting better before his condition quickly deteriorated last weekend, his nephew Agnew Hall said Friday.
“He went to the ER, they gave him oxygen and sent him home, and he appeared to be doing fine,” Hall said. “Then Monday morning, things changed, and he did not make it. It was quite a shock.”
A former Louisiana Ragin Cajun star received some great news on Monday.
Receiver Ja Marcus Bradley, who played for Louisiana the last four years, was added to the active roster of the Cleveland Browns, after being a member of their practice squad.
For Bradley, who helped the Cajuns to 11 wins last season, this marks his first stint on an NFL active roster.
Bradley did not appear in Cleveland s 47-42 setback to the Baltimore Ravens on Monday night.
The Browns signed Bradley as an undrafted free agent back in May.
The 6-foot-1, 195-pound Bradley caught 60 passes for 906 yards and ten touchdowns for Louisiana in 2019, good enough to be named a second-team All-Sun Belt Conference pick, as well as a third-team All-Louisiana selection.
