Crowd outside condo where McNair found deadNASHVILLE, Tenn. - Former Tennessee Titans quarterback Steve McNair is dead.
The former Titans star was found shot to death inside a residence at the Rutledge House Condominiums on Second Avenue South at Lea Avenue, in downtown Nashville.
An unidentified female was also found dead.
Metro police spokesperson Don Aaron said her identity was being withheld pending notification of next of kin.
In a press conference late Saturday afternoon he said police don't yet know the circumstances of the shooting.
"I don't have any answers for you now as to [what has] happened, who's responsible," he said.
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.
It is located within walking distance of Lower Broadway, just a few blocks from the Cumberland River and within view of the Titans' stadium.
Aaron said they were interviewing visitors of the complex but had no suspects in custody Saturday afternoon.
Investigators remained on the scene Saturday night.
McNair played 13 seasons in the NFL before retiring in April 2008.
He played college football at Alcorn State and was drafted by the Houston Oilers, third overall, in the 1995 NFL Draft.
McNair played 11 seasons with the Titans franchise, leading the team to the Super Bowl in 1999.
He finished his career with the franchise with 31,304 yards passing and 174 touchdowns.
McNair played his final two seasons with the Baltimore Ravens.
He was selected to the Pro Bowl three times and was the co-MVP of the league in 2003, sharing the award with Peyton Manning.
In a statement, Titans' owner Bud Adams said, "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."
"I am deeply saddened to learn of today's tragic news regarding the death of Steve McNair. He was a player who I admired a great deal," said New England Patriots senior football adviser Floyd Reese, who was GM of the Titans when McNair played there. "He was a tremendous leader and an absolute warrior. He felt like it was his responsibility to lead by working hard every day, no matter what.
"I don't think there was a player who played with him or against him that didn't look up to him and respect him," Reese said. "My heartfelt condolences go out to his family, his friends and the many teammates who loved and admired him."
In a statement, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said, "We don't know the details, but it is a terrible tragedy and our hearts go out to the families involved. 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."
McNair was 36 years old.
