    Former Titans MVP Quarterback, McNair shot dead.

    Former NFL quarterback McNair killed in Tennessee | Top AP Stories | Chron.com - Houston Chronicle

    NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Former NFL quarterback Steve McNair and a woman were found shot to death Saturday inside a residence in Nashville, police said.

    Nashville police spokesman Don Aaron confirmed that authorities were called to a condominium and found McNair and a woman shot to death inside. Aaron said police don't yet know the circumstances of the shooting.

    "I don't have any answers for you now as to what's happened, who's responsible," he said.

    Aaron said police tentatively have identified the woman but did not release her name.

    The condominium where the bodies were found is one that McNair was known to frequent, but police spokeswoman Kristin Mumford could not say whether he was the owner.

    McNair played 13 seasons in the NFL and led the Titans within a yard of forcing overtime in the 2000 Super Bowl, which they lost 23-16 to the St. Louis Rams. He also played for the Baltimore Ravens before retiring in April 2008.

    "We don't know the details, but it is a terrible tragedy and our hearts go out to the families involved," NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement.
    "We are saddened and shocked to hear the news of Steve McNair's passing today," Titans owner Bud Adams said in a statement. "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."

    It's a very sad story. The guy was one of the toughest quarterbacks to ever play the game. R.I.P.

    Yeah, even though he's no Brett Favre or Joe Montana to me, I thought he was one of the better quarterbacks. Sucks, really.
