Agent: All family provided for by slain former NFL quarterback McNair _ even without a will

Agent: McNair’s estate not an issue for family

JACKSON, Miss. — Even though he left no will, slain former NFL quarterback Steve McNair’s entire immediate family has been provided for under instructions he left before his death.

McNair’s former agent, James “Bus” Cook, told The Associated Press on Wednesday that McNair’s wife, Mechelle, is not trying to exclude McNair’s mother and two children he had with other women.

McNair was killed July 4 in a murder-suicide committed by Sahel Kazemi.

Cook says McNair had wills drawn up two or three times but never signed them. He said Mechelle McNair is not contesting the legal status of her husband’s two other children, but that court documents might have confused reporters.
