MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) - It was one year ago, when Covid-19 changed former Memphis and NFL wide receiver Russell Copeland’s world. The virus took his dad’s life. He also lost his aunt and friend.
“There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t miss my father,” Copeland said. “We were very close. During football season, we would talk about football. Not being able to see him every day it’s been very difficult.”
