Summary
Jamie Erdahl opened Friday's "Good Morning Football" by marking the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, calling it a "heavy day" before the show turned to NFL Week 1.
Erdahl said the program would cover football while remembering those affected, adding that the day "changed our country forever" and honoring those who lost their lives.
The attacks killed 2,977 people after 19 al-Qaeda hijackers seized four commercial planes, striking the World Trade Center and Pentagon while United Flight 93 crashed in Pennsylvania.
NFL Week 1 had already begun with Seattle's 13-10 win over New England on Wednesday and San Francisco's 27-7 victory over the Rams in Melbourne on Thursday, with 13 more games set for Sunday.
