“Our game will forever be indebted to Steve for his contribution to the National Football League.
“Thanks to Steve’s leadership and vision, NFL Films had a profoundly positive impact on the popularity of our game and will always be a significant part of our history. Nothing brought our fans closer to the glory and passion of our game than did NFL Films.
“On behalf of the William Clay Ford family and the Lions organization, we offer our most sincere sympathy to the Sabol family and everyone at NFL Films.”
