Philadelphia — December 2025 The Philadelphia Eagles organization and the broader NFL community are mourning the passing of a longtime Eagles field reporter, who passed away at the age of 39 following a tragic incident at her home. She leaves behind a 3-year-old child and a legacy defined by professionalism, compassion, and more than a decade of dedicated coverage in Philadelphia.

Her calm demeanor and respect for the game earned her admiration throughout the Eagles organization and across the league. Authorities confirmed her passing earlier this week. While details remain under investigation, officials stated that her young child was found safe.
