MIAMI (AP) - NFL commissioner Roger Goodell says the
death of Washington Redskins safety Sean Taylor is a "terrible
tragedy" that many people are struggling to understand.
Taylor died this morning, a day after he was shot in his Miami
area home by an apparent intruder.
Goodell says the league will honor Taylor's memory at all games
this weekend.
Redskins owner Daniel Snyder says Taylor's death is the "worst
imaginable tragedy."
Taylor's father has released a statement saying "It is with
deep regret that a young man had to come to his end so soon."
Pedro Taylor also thanked fans, hospital staff, the Redskins and
the media.
Meanwhile, authorities continue to search for any suspects in
South Florida.
The 24-year-old Taylor starred as a running back and defensive
back at Gulliver Prep in Miami. His father is police chief of
Florida City.
