Some upsetting and unfortunate news to pass along Sunday morning as Pittsburgh Steelers wide receivers coach Darryl Drake passed away this morning, according to the team.
Steelers team president Art Rooney released a statement on Drake’s passing Sunday morning.
We are at a loss for words following Darryl Drake’s passing this morning. Darryl had such an impact on the players he coached and everyone he worked with throughout his entire career. He was a passionate coach and had a tremendous spirit toward life, his family, his faith and the game of football.
Our prayers and thoughts are with his wife, Sheila, his three daughters, his grandchildren and entire family during this difficult time.
