The Dallas Cowboys honored their late defensive end, Marshawn Kneeland, with a locker room tribute ahead of their "Monday Night Football" game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Kneeland's jersey, marked with his number 94 and the caption "94 forever," was displayed in his locker.
This is one of several tributes planned, as players will also wear helmet decals and T-shirts in his memory during the 2025 season. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer shared that Kneeland's girlfriend is pregnant with their child and spoke about Kneeland's impact on the team, describing him as the "most playful spirit." The news of Kneeland's death, which was from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound at the age of 24, devastated teammates, former players, and his alma mater, Western Michigan.
The upcoming game is expected to be an emotional one for all involved.
