ALBANY, N.Y. - The tragic death of Andy Reid's son, Garrett, rocked the Philadelphia Eagles' organization and the entire NFL.

Today, on an off day for the Giants' players here at training camp, the organization took a moment to send its condolences to Reid, his family and their divisional rivals.

"Football is a game of emotion and passion. Even for those who don't wear it on their sleeve," a team spokesman said. "The pain and sadness we feel for Andy Reid and his family for the loss of their son is palpable. It's the same sense we had when Joe Philbin's son passed away, but the emotions are even stronger for us now because of our connection to Coach Reid and his team and the fact that we compete twice, and occasionally three times, a year.

"We have such great respect for him as a person and coach."

Defensive captain Justin Tuck tweeted, "Prayers go out to Andy Reid and his family. "

Tweeted D.J. Ware, "No Man/Father or Woman/Mother should have to face the loss of a son or daughter - tragic - prayers go out to Coach Reid and family"
