Two NFL players missing

Corey Smith from the Detroit Lions and Marquis Cooper from the Oakland Raiders have been reported as lost at sea off the shore of Clearwater, FL. The two former Tampa Buccaneers players were on a fishing trip. After failing to return as expected, the Coast Guard sent out helicopters as well as a 47 foot ship. However, dreary weather conditions made it hard for the search party to find the 21 foot ship. The Football player's families have been informed of this unfortunate situation. Smith and Cooper were with two other men, William Bleakley and Nick Schuyler. Bleakley's father stated he is sure they will be found. Here's hoping for a safe return home!
