Two NFL Players Missing At Sea After Bad Weather
Two NFL Players went missing yesterday after leaving for a fishing trip on Saturday. The two players, Corey Smith and Marquis Cooper, as well as former University of South Florida players Will Bleakley and Nick Schuyler were onboard. Weather conditions worsened through the day and the men did not return as expected in the evening.
A relative reported them missing, and the Coast Guard searched a wide area west of Clearwater Pass but were hampered by rough seas and weather.
By Monday, the harsh conditions were starting to subside. Waves were 6 to 8 feet, still enough for a small craft advisory, but considerably smaller than the 15-foot waves Sunday, National Weather Service meteorologist Todd Barron said.
Coast Guard Capt. Timothy M. Close said at least one of the men was an experienced boater, and relatives provided the Coast Guard with GPS coordinates from previous fishing expeditions.
