Police: Rolando McClain’s Home Burns Down In ‘Suspicious’ Fire

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Rolando McClain’s offseason home burned down Monday night, and local police are asking people to come forward with information about the “suspicious” fire that gutted the house.

Neighbors reported hearing a loud bang and seeing a car speed away from the scene before a fire engulfed the entire house, according to The Associated Press. Tuscaloosa County Sheriff’s Lt. Andy Norris said the vehicle could be a clue in the fire, but investigators said they still haven’t figured out if the fire was intentional or accidental.

The six-bedroom, five-bath brick house on Lake Tuscaloosa was listed on real estate websites at $1.5 million.

“Anytime you have a vacant house go up, particularly one of that value, you have to consider it suspicious,” Norris said. “Every house in that neighborhood is probably over $1 million.”

McClain retired from the NFL earlier in the year but came out of retirement in July and signed with the Cowboys.
