For Derrick Harmon, Thursday night is one of the happiest and most somber days of his life. Drafted in the first round by the Pittsburgh Steelers, the trip he’ll take before flying to Pittsburgh is the hospital. Harmon’s mother, Tiffany Saine, has battled health problems throughout her life including suffering a stroke when Harmon was a freshman in college at Michigan State.
Speaking to reporters in his post-pick interview with the media, he indicated she’s in a nearby hospital on life support.

A Detroit native, Harmon stayed local and committed to Michigan State in part due to staying close to his mother.
