The Coast Guard is searching for New England Patriots defensive end Marquise Hill, who fell off a jet ski with a woman Lake Pontchartrain in Louisiana, according to a radio report.
"I have hope. He's a strong kid," Hill's agent, Albert Elias, told WWL Radio in New Orleans.
Coast Guard Petty Officer Thomas Atkinson told WWL Radio that a Good Samaritan on shore heard cries for help and rescuers found the woman clinging 'onto a piling near the shore.'
Elias told WWL Radio that people shouldn't fear the worst because his client can swim. "If we could get people out there to look for him ? he can swim," Elias told the radio station.
