‘All American’ Says Goodbye To Kamar De Los Reyes’ Coach Montes

All American gave a proper goodbye to the late Kamar de los Reyes during Monday night’s episode.

The actor, who died in December after a brief battle with cancer, joined the cast in Season 4 as Coastal California’s Coach Montes on the CW series. He appeared in the Season 6 premiere, but that was all he was able to film before his death.

His character has been inexplicably absent from the rest of the season, though the other characters — specifically Cody Christian’s Asher Adams — have referenced him a number of times. While Monday’s episode didn’t bring Coach Montes back in any form, it did wrap the character’s storyline by revealing he’d be taking a job with the NFL.

Asher was able to share a phone call with Coach Montes to say goodbye to his boss and mentor.

All American is currently in its sixth season with five episodes left to go. The series was recently renewed for Season 7.
