Citing sources, several media outlets reported a body recovered from the Fox River Monday afternoon by a Winnebago County rescue/recovery team was Michael Philbin's.

 

News that Michael Philbin was missing came as the top-seeded Packers prepared for Sunday's playoff game against the New York Giants in the NFC divisional round.

 

Packers coach Mike McCarthy spoke somberly of the situation during his press conference.

 

"We'll be ready," McCarthy said.

 

Also Monday, Packers general manager Ted Thompson said in a statement that the team was aware of the missing person report and that its thoughts and prayers were with Philbin family.

 

The plaintiffs, led by former NFL player Brent Boyd and Hall of Famers Lem Barney, Joe DeLamielleure and Paul Krause, contend the league caused serious injuries to thousands of players as a result of the NFL's improper conduct.

 

The lawsuit, filed Monday, follows similar suits filed last month in federal courts in Miami, New York and Atlanta.

 

Green Bay, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The son of Green Bay Packers offensive coordinator Joe Philbin has been found dead in a Wisconsin river. Authorities had been searching for Michael Philbin, 21, since he was reported missing Sunday night. He had been visiting friends in Oshkosh the previous evening and was last heard from around 2 a.m. local time Sunday, police said.

 

"The Packers family was saddened to learn of the passing of Michael Philbin, son of offensive coordinator Joe Philbin," Thompson stated. "Our thoughts and prayers are with Joe, his wife, Diane, and the Philbin family as they cope with their loss. This is an emotional and difficult time for them, and we ask that everyone respect their privacy. All of us in the Packers family share in their grief."

 

The tragedy comes with the Packers preparing to face the New York Giants in the NFC Divisional Playoffs on Sunday. It was unclear as of Tuesday afternoon if Joe Philbin would remain with the team this week or take a leave of absence.
