Washington Redskins safety Sean Taylor has died, said family friend Richard Sharpstein.
Taylor had been in critical condition Monday after he was shot during what police are investigating as a possible armed robbery at his home.
The 24-year-old player was in the intensive care unit following several hours of surgery at Jackson Memorial Hospital.
Taylor lost a "significant" amount of blood because the bullet damaged his femoral artery, and doctors were worried about blood flow to the brain, according to Sharpstein, his former lawyer. - Source: CBS5.com
According to an ESPN.com article,
Taylor responded to simple commands on Monday. Unfortunately, this is what significant blood loss does to you.
