Son of Philadelphia Eagles’ coach died of heroin overdose

Garrett Reid, a son of the coach Andy Reid, was found unconscious at his dormitory room. However Omar Elkhamra, the team physician of the Philadelphia Eagles, tried to revive him, the efforts of the doctor were in vain. The county coroner said that this young man (29 years old) died of a heroin overdose.
Garrett Reid’s death was a real tragedy for the family of Andy Reid. Furthermore, the case caused several problems for the Philadelphia Eagles. The football players had to clear themselves from suspicions connected with steroid use. Some anabolic steroids were found by local police officers in the dormitory of Garret Reid. Furthermore, syringes and needles were found in his possession as well. The steroids were named by police. It was reported that Garrett Reid had Nandrolone Phenylpropionate, Boldenone Undecylenate, Testosterone Propionate and Trenbolone Acetate. Since these drugs were found at Garrett Reid’s dormitory room, several suspicions arose. It was noted that the coach’s son probably provided these prohibited medications to members of the Philadelphia Eagles. Thus, the death of Garrett Reid turned out to be a trouble for the whole sport organization.
Some of anabolic steroids revealed at Garrett Reid’ dormitory room are fast-acting. These medicines are commonly liked by athletes that submit to drug testing. Since they are excreted from the body in short period of time after use, it is more difficult to catch those who have administered these preparations. So, it is suspected that such medicines must have been administered by players of the Philadelphia Eagles.
Despites suspicions, nothing was proved. It was not disclosed yet whether anabolic steroids were found in the body of Garrett Reid.
The NFL spokesman claimed that he would report when it will be clear whether steroids found in Garrett Reid’s dormitory room were linked to Philadelphia Eagles.
