The NFL released a statement Wednesday expressing gratitude for a flood of support it received after its headquarters at a Midtown Manhattan high-rise was targeted in a mass shooting Monday evening.

The NFL held a moment of silence before Thursday's Hall of Fame Game to honor the four people killed earlier this week by a shooter who was targeting the league's headquarters in New York.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams said Tuesday that a gunman who killed four people at a Manhattan office building was trying to target the headquarters of the National Football League but took the wrong elevator.
