Roger Goodell Addresses Shooting In Emotional Interview Ahead Of NFL Game
SHARE

In a heartfelt interview before the NFL preseason opener between the Los Angeles Chargers and the Detroit Lions, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell shared his thoughts on the recent shooting at NFL headquarters that tragically claimed the lives of four individuals.

Instead of attending the game, Goodell remained in New York City to pay his respects at the funeral of NYPD officer Didarul Islam, who was one of the victims along with a security guard, a real estate firm employee, and an investment firm executive.

Reflecting on the loss, Goodell expressed his sorrow for the loss of Islam, a devoted father of two with a third child on the way.

Witnessing the officer’s family and young children, Goodell emphasized the emotional impact of such a tragedy. He praised Islam’s bravery and posthumous promotion to detective first grade as a well-deserved honor.

During a difficult and emotional afternoon, Goodell attended a heartwarming service for Islam, acknowledging the profound loss and the incomprehensible nature of the violence that occurred.

An NFL employee was also injured in the attack, and Goodell visited him in the hospital, describing his condition as stable and improving. The commissioner expressed sympathy for the employee’s young family and the hardship of the situation.

The tragic incident was further complicated by the revelation that the shooter, a 27-year-old individual, intended to target NFL headquarters but mistakenly entered the wrong elevator. A note found on the gunman referenced his alleged struggle with chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a brain disease associated with repetitive head injuries.

Although the shooter had a history of playing high school football, he never reached the NFL. When questioned about the CTE claim, Goodell chose to focus on condemning the senseless violence rather than addressing the specific allegation.

Addressing the prevalence of such acts of violence in society, Goodell emphasized the need for vigilance and protection. He underscored the importance of safeguarding NFL employees and the broader community from such senseless acts of hatred.
