NBC sports anchor Daryl Hawks Hawks joined NBC Channel 5 in July, 2008, and on his bio, the website stated:
“When Daryl isn’t covering sports, he’s usually out playing them. The former semi-pro running back and U.S. Marine still loves playing tackle football, pick-up basketball, and his new love, golf. While in Jacksonville (Fla.), Daryl had the opportunity to share his love for sports and physical fitness, as a member of the Mayor’s Council on Fitness and Exercise.
“I workout everyday. Other than spending time with my family, it’s what I love doing most,” Hawks said.
The three-time Emmy winner and former Marine is survived by his wife, Sandy, and their two children.
