he U.S. Coast Guard has found an overturned boat with one survivor off Florida's Gulf Coast, but it remains unclear whether it was the boat carrying two NFL players and two other men who had embarked on a fishing trip Saturday from Clearwater, Fla.

Petty Officer Sondra-Kay Kneen said only that searchers located an overturned boat today.
