Tragic news came out on Thursday morning as it was announced that 24-year-old Dallas Cowboys’ defensive end Marshawn Kneeland has passed away. 

Kneeland, who played collegiately at Western Michigan University, was a second-round draft pick by the Cowboys in 2024. He had just recovered a block punt for a touchdown in Monday’s game against the Arizona Cardinals. 

Absolutely tragic and far too young. RIP, Marshawn Kneeland, and condolences to his friends and family.
