Steve McNair Reportedly Not Father of Mississippi Teenager

Last week, news broke that a Mississippi woman, Clover Lee, was claiming her 17-year-old daughter was actually fathered by the late Steve McNair. With McNair's estate in the process of being divided between his surviving family members, Lee and her attorney were attempting to throw their proverbial hats in the ring. In their statement, it was mentioned that a DNA test would conclusively answer some questions.

According to a report Saturday, it did.

Lee's 17-year-old daughter, according to The Tennessean, is not the daughter of McNair. In the nearly three months since the murder of McNair, it's pretty likely good news has been hard to come by for the surviving members of his family, but this has to qualify as relatively good news -- even if it's incredibly minor.

McNair's estate is worth $19.6 million. As things currently stand, it's being divided among his widow and four sons. Lou Taylor, a spokesman for McNair's estate, is still planning on handling more claims, though.
"Very early on it was apparent there would be additional heirs,'' Taylor said. "We took every precaution necessary to be able to provide accurate information for potential claims."
For now, if the report on the paternity test is accurate, it's still just those five immediate family members getting a piece of the estate.
