Cowboys Outline Season-Long Tributes as Team Returns After Marshawn Kneeland’s Death

Authorities report an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound after a late-night pursuit and crash near the Cowboys’ facility.

Overview

  • The Cowboys will wear a helmet decal for the rest of the season, don pregame T‑shirts for the next two games, and present a video tribute before the Nov. 23 home game against the Eagles.
  • Team officials said counseling resources are available, and Stephen Jones described the organization as heartbroken while coordinating memorial plans with Kneeland’s family.
  • Texas DPS says troopers attempted a traffic stop Nov. 5; Kneeland fled, crashed into a pickup, abandoned the vehicle, and was later found deceased early Nov. 6.
  • Local reporting says officers discovered his body in a portable restroom near Network Boulevard and Gaylord Parkway, close to where the vehicle was located.
  • Dispatch audio indicates Kneeland sent a ‘goodbye’ text and that his girlfriend told police he was armed and had a history of mental illness, as the NFL and teams held moments of silence across stadiums.
