NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Police are calling the shooting death of
former NFL quarterback Steve McNair a homicide, but they haven't
yet reached a conclusion about the death of the 20-year-old woman
found with him.
Nashville police spokesman Don Aaron said Sunday that the two
had been dating the past several months.
Aaron says McNair was shot four times, twice in the head. The
woman, 20-year-old Sahel Kazemi, was killed by a single gunshot
wound. The pistol was found near her body.
The 36-year-old McNair, a four-time Pro Bowl selection who was
married with four children, and Kazemi were found dead Saturday at
a Nashville condominium he shared with a friend.
McNair played most of his career with the Tennessee Titans
before he was traded to the Baltimore Ravens. He retired last year.

You were an unbelievable warrior on the field and from what I have heard a very humble person off the field. You will forever be a Tennessee Titan!
