John Elway is speaking out on the death of his longtime business partner and former agent, Jeff Sperbeck.
“I am absolutely devastated and heartbroken by the passing of my close friend, business partner and agent Jeff Sperbeck,” Elway, 64, told ESPN’s Adam Schefter in a Wednesday, April 30, statement. “There are no words to truly express the profound sadness I feel with the sudden loss of someone who has meant so much to me.”
Elway continued, “My heart and deepest sympathies go out to Jeff’s wife, Cori; his children Carly, Sam and Jackson; and everyone who knew and loved him. Jeff will be deeply missed for the loyalty, wisdom, friendship and love he brought into my life and the lives of so many others.”
Sperbeck died Wednesday at the age of 62 after he was placed on life support following a golf accident both he and Elway were involved in on Saturday, April 26. Elway was allegedly driving a golf cart at the Madison Club in La Quinta, California, when Sperbeck fell off the back of the vehicle and hit his head on the asphalt, according to TMZ. Per the outlet, there is no indication that Elway had been driving negligently.
This is a developing story.
