OSHKOSH, Wis. -- Green Bay Packers offensive coordinator Joe Philbin's son is missing.

Police in Oshkosh say 21-year-old Michael T. Philbin of Ripon was last heard from around 2 a.m. Sunday. He had been visiting friends in Oshkosh that evening. He was reported missing on Sunday evening.

A police spokesman did not immediately return a message left today seeking additional comment.

A Brown County judge sentenced Michael Philbin to six months in jail in 2009 after he was convicted of sexually assaulting two young girls and two counts of battery.

His disappearance comes as the Packers prepare to face the Giants in an NFC playoff game Sunday in Green Bay.

he's missing..but it could be for his own bizarre reasons/actions. Not because of a tragedy to a close family who misses him.

although, either way, that is a tragedy

Hasn't been identified as him yet. Seems the most likely explanation, but we will wait and see.

Oh okay, I misunderstood you.

early word is that it is him.

apparently packers players have been told it was him. they fished the body of a 20-25 year old out of the river earlier today.

Wonder how much this will impact Green Bay vs the Giants.

[GoChargers]

Confirmed.

RIP

RIP. Thoughts and prayers to the family. Philbon should take any time he needs. A Packers playoff victory is not the top priority here.
