The body of a music producer was found Tuesday inside a Fair Lawn home owned by New York Giants cornerback Janoris Jenkins.

The dead man was identified Tuesday night as 25-year-old Roosevelt Rene, a Jenkins family friend. Jenkins, a Florida native, has reportedly been in that state since Giants mini-camp broke early this month.

Rene produced music under the name Trypps Beatz and numerous fans took to Twitter Tuesday night to post condolences.

How Rene died has not yet been determined, and is pending an autopsy by the Bergen County Medical Examiner's Office, authorities said.

Public records show that Rene previously lived in Dallas, Georgia, and Spring Valley, N.Y.

Jenkins was a second round pick by St. Louis Rams in 2012 and has been with the Giants since 2016, when he was selected to the Pro Bowl. He also raps under the name Rabbit during his time away from football.

TMZ reported that Rene's body was discovered in the basement by a worker at the home.

Jenkins purchased the house for $500,000 in 2016, public records show.

"The Bergen County Prosecutor's Office Major Crimes Unit and the Fair Lawn Police Department are investigating a death at [Jenkins' residence]," Acting Prosecutor Dennis Calo said in a statement.

NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reported that law enforcement sources told him police are investigating the death as a "possible strangulation/suffocation."

Fair Lawn Police Sgt Brian Metzler said police were called to the home at 10:22 a.m. and that members of the Bergen County Prosecutor's Office and Bergen County Sheriff's Office were also on scene.

Metzler declined to give specifics about the investigation, but said police have never been called to Jenkins' home in the past.

A neighbor at the scene, who identified herself only as Debbie, said Jenkins lives at the home with his brother. She said she never had any issues with either of them and was shocked when she heard the body was found at the home.

Investigators were seen digging through the contents of a white Lexus sedan with Florida plates in the driveway as well as a Land Rover. They also removed several small brown paper bags from the home and loaded them into an unmarked prosecutor's office SUV.

Prosecutor's office detectives left the home around 9 p.m. and only a marked Fair Lawn Police car remained at the scene.

The Giants said that they were aware of, and monitoring the situation.

Jenkins, voted to his first Pro Bowl in 2016 is a key member of the Giants' secondary. However, he is coming off a season-ending ankle injury suffered in Week 9 against Washington last year. Despite the injury cutting his season short, Jenkins intercepted three passes and returned two of them for touchdowns, in addition to making 26 tackles.
