Jerry Jones Details Cowboys’ Season-Long Tributes After Marshawn Kneeland’s Death

The club detailed season tributes in coordination with Kneeland’s family.

Overview

  • Police say the 24-year-old defensive lineman was found dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot after a traffic stop, a crash, and a foot search in Frisco early Nov. 6.
  • Dispatch recordings reported a group “goodbye” text, a warning from his girlfriend about prior mental-health struggles, and officers’ attempts to call, text, and locate him with a drone.
  • Jones said the Cowboys will wear a helmet decal for the rest of the season and pregame T-shirts for their next two games, starting Monday night at the Raiders.
  • The team plans a video tribute and moment of silence at the Nov. 23 home game against the Eagles, with Kneeland’s family and girlfriend expected to attend.
  • Players reconvened for an emotional meeting with therapists present as league teams held moments of silence over the weekend, and investigative and medical-examiner reviews continue.
