The San Diego restaurant that Junior Seau owned is going out of business.

Trustees of Seau’s estate announced the decision to close Seau’s The Restaurant on Wednesday, two weeks after Seau committed suicide. The trustees said the restaurant’s ability to be profitable without Seau’s leadership was in question.

Seau’s described itself as the largest sports restaurant in San Diego, with 60 TVs and more than 14,500 square feet of space. Seau opened the restaurant in 1996, his seventh season with the Chargers.
