I heard that many of his teammates described him as cheerful and a jokester in the lockeroom. He has a couple of teammates that have dealt with suicide and tragic death in their immediate family. Dak Prescott to name one. I heard Daryl Johnston talking earlier. He made the point that speculating that CTE is the cause is premature. the cowboys defensive struggles are worse than I can ever remember and Kneeland was not playing well. Last year as a rookie he looked like he had a promising future. very sad.

Catalina Mancera, the girlfriend of deceased Dallas Cowboys player Marshawn Kneeland, is pregnant, the Cowboys’ head coach announced at a news conference on Wednesday.

“We’re going to honor Marshawn, his family, a number of different ways,” Brian Schottenheimer told reporters a week after the 24-year-old defensive end’s death. “The organization has been amazing. We’ve started the Marshawn Kneeland Memorial Fund, where we can all give and support Catalina. She’s pregnant, and so we want to make sure she’s taken care of and the baby’s taken care of for the rest of their lives.”
