OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco plans to see former tight end Todd Heap on Wednesday and hopes to provide some comfort during this tragic time.
Heap accidentally ran over his 3-year-old daughter with a truck, killing her in their Mesa, Arizona, driveway on Friday.
Flacco, who played with Heap for three seasons (2008-10), hasn't yet spoken to Heap. He has been getting his information from tight end Dennis Pitta.
"I'm going to go out there [Wednesday] and hopefully spend some time with him and just maybe be a little bit of a distraction in this time," Flacco said Tuesday.
