Just saw this flashing on FoxNews: Steve McNair found dead in a Nashville apartment in what may be a double homicide or possibly a murder-suicide. McNair was found shot to death from a bullet to the head. A female was also found dead.
Not much is out right now, but I'm sure there will be quite a bit soon.
McNair was the star quarterback of the Houston Oilers-turned-Tennessee Oilers-turned-Tennessee Titans. He also played for the Baltimore Ravens late in his career. He became just the second African-American QB to lead his team to a Super Bowl (Doug Williams was the first). He was 36 years old.
He went to three Pro Bowls and, along with Peyton Manning, was the 2003 co-MVP.
UPDATE: It's looking like more of a double homicide instead of the first reported murder-suicide. McNair was killed in his Nashville apartment.
UPDATE II: Titans owner Bud Adams released a statement from the organization: "We are saddened and shocked to hear the news of Steve McNair's passing today. He was one of the finest players to play for our organization and one of the most beloved players by our fans. He played with unquestioned heart and leadership and led us to places that we had never reached, including our only Super Bowl. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family as they deal with his untimely passing."
