The 2-year-old son of former Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Randall Cunningham died yesterday after being found floating in the family's hot tub. Christian was discovered around 4:30pm by a woman who was at Cunningham's Las Vegas home; he was rushed to a hospital and pronounced dead shortly after. Police say it appears to have been an accident. Cunningham, who became an ordained minister in 2004, often used the hot tub to perform baptisms, reports the Review-Journal.
