Garrett Reid died because 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 affirmed that this young man (29 years old) died of a heroin overdose.
Garrett Reid’s death was a serious tragedy for the family of Andy Reid. Moreover, the case caused some problems for the Philadelphia Eagles. The football players had to clear themselves from suspicions linked with usage of steroids. Several anabolic steroids were found by local police in the dormitory of Garret Reid. Moreover, syringes and needles were found in his possession too. The steroids were named by police. It was reported that Garrett Reid possessed Nandrolone Phenylpropionate, Boldenone Undecylenate, Testosterone Propionate and Trenbolone Acetate. Since these products were found at Garrett Reid’s dormitory room, some suspicions appeared. It was noted that the coach’s son probably provided these banned preparations 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 steroids revealed at Garrett Reid’ room are fast-acting. These medications are usually liked by sportspersons that submit to drug testing. Since they are eliminated from the body in short period of time after usage, it is more difficult to catch those that have administered these medicines. So, it is suspected that such medications must have been used by players of the Philadelphia Eagles.
However suspicions are pronounced, nothing has been proven. It was not reported yet whether anabolic steroids were found in the system of Garrett Reid.
The NFL spokesman assured that he would report when it will be clear whether steroids found in Garrett Reid’s room were linked to Philadelphia Eagles.
