Mother of Steelers' first-round pick dies shortly after he visits her in hospital to reveal selection: report

After Derrick Harmon was the 21st overall pick Thursday, the newest Pittsburgh Steeler had to break the news to his mother.

Harmon was unable to watch the draft with his mother because she was on life support in a hospital.

Harmon said getting drafted was "bittersweet" because he couldn't spend it with his mom. 

Right after being selected, Harmon traveled to a hospital to visit his mother, Tiffany Saine, and tell her "her son got drafted."
