Kansas City Chiefs release statement on Jovan Belcher tragedy

While the Kansas City Chiefs work with the NFL to decide if and when to alter their schedule against the Carolina Panthers, the organization has released a statement regarding today's tragic events:

"The entire Chiefs family is deeply saddened by today's events, and our collective hearts are heavy with sympathy, thoughts and prayers for the families and friends affected by this unthinkable tragedy. We sincerely appreciate the expressions of sympathy and support we have received from so many in the Kansas City and NFL communities, and ask for continued prayers for the loved ones of those impacted."

We will continue to fully cooperate with the authorities and work to ensure that the appropriate counseling resources are available to all members of the organization."
