Bill Belichick opened his press conference this morning with the following statement:

"First of all I’d like to on behalf of our team extend our condolences, thoughts and prayers to Sean Taylor’s family and his extended families with the Redskins and the University of Miami. Of course, we have a number of players from Miami on our team and some connections there. It’s a terrible tragedy. There’s no way to really explain it, obviously, it’s just our sympathies go out to them."
