Cowboys Begin On-Field Tributes in First Game Since Marshawn Kneeland’s Death

Dallas returns to play with memorial plans for Kneeland’s memory, with the investigation’s final determinations still pending.

Overview

  • The Cowboys will wear a helmet decal for the rest of the season, don tribute warmup shirts against the Raiders and again on Nov. 23, and show a video tribute before their next home game.
  • The organization created the Marshawn Kneeland Memorial Fund to support his pregnant girlfriend, Catalina Mancera.
  • The NFL and NFLPA provided counseling resources to the team during its bye week following the news.
