Four men are missing outside Clearwater pass in Tampa, Florida, two are confirmed to be NFL players.

No names have been released yet.

The men did not return from fishing trip and the search for the four men began at 2AM this morning.

Sorry no link. I'll try to keep you updated.

Just heard on Sirius that a few NFL players have gone missing on some real choppy waters. A Raider, Lion and one more I think are missing. Authorities did say there was a distress signal yesterday for the boat and they never got back to shore last night. There is a search ongoing. Sorry for no articles or details. If someone finds something, please post. One of the raiders first names was Marquis I thin. I could barely hear it.

I hate to hear this. It can get bad in a hurry out there and it really is scary.

REPORT: THREE NFL PLAYERS ON MISSING BOAT

Posted by Mike Florio on March 1, 2009, 11:50 a.m

From ABC comes a scary story out of Florida. Three NFL players are on a fishing boat that is missing off the Gulf Coast in Clearwater.

One reportedly plays for the Lions, and another plays for the Raiders.
A 21-foot boat with four passengers left from Clearwater Pass at 6:30 a.m. EST on Saturday. It was due to return after dark but never arrived.
A friend called the Coast Guard at 1:30 a.m. EST on Sunday and reported the boat missing.

Per the report, officials say that the Gulf waters are extremely choppy and that it’s believed the boat is in distress.
More to come.
