Whenever somebody dies, unless the cause is immediately obvious, the question that naturally follows is, what happened? For the Pittsburgh Steelers, the passing of wide receivers coach Darryl Drake was sudden and unexpected, and has blindsided the entire organization. He was 62 years old at the time of his death, well into his fourth decade as a coach and in his second season with the team.
According to Mark Kaboly of The Athletic, Drake actually complained of chest pains on the night that he died, and even paid a visit to a local hospital to have some tests run.
