Sister of NFL Player Missing for 7 Months Pleads for Help

Icon Sportswire / Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Samuel Beal, 29, a former cornerback for the New York Giants, has been missing since July. “Tomorrow makes it 7 months since we’ve last heard from or seen my brother,” Beal’s sister, Essence Zhane, posted on Facebook on Monday, declaring that the family is in “desperate need of support” to find the NFL player. According to the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System database, Beal was last seen on July 12 by his girlfriend when he was dropping her off at a family member’s house. He borrowed her vehicle, intending to go to work, but instead drove to Virginia Beach, Virginia, where he called his girlfriend the following day to say he was coming back home. However, Beal never arrived and the vehicle was later found by a family member, with his socks and shoes left on the floor of the passenger seat. “I’m not here to answer a bunch of why’s and how’s I just need this to land in the right direction to gain some form of answers or closure,” Zhane wrote in her Facebook message, urging anyone who has any information to contact the police department. Beal played in nine games during his time with the Giants and was released in 2021. Read it at ABC 7 Read more at The Daily Beast.
