I was not able to view the article due to a subscriber paywall, but here is the YouTube video they embedded.

Had no idea he passed, never saw anything about it on the news or social media. Only found out because someone made a reference to him today on a sports show and I went to look at a video and found he passed in December.

The two guys who was talking about him on ESPN probably didnt know he passed either because they probably would have mentioned it

Anyone know the cause of Eddie’s death?

I thought he could have done well doing plays. He had nice voice sounding a little like Tony Bennett.
