Marshawn Kneeland’s family has expressed their grief.
Shortly after the Dallas Cowboys confirmed the defensive end had died at 24, his family offered a heartbreaking remembrance of the rising NFL star.
“We are devastated by this tremendous loss and are still processing the depth of our grief,” Marshawn’s family, including his siblings AJ Kneeland, Shawn Kneeland and Yahmya Kneeland, wrote in a joint Nov. 6 Facebook statement. “As Marshawn was making his mark on the football field with the Dallas Cowboys, he held an even more special place off the field—as a devoted son, brother, uncle, cousin, nephew, grandson, and friend.”
Of his character, they added, “He was kind, determined, humble, and full of love. His light shone brightly in every life he touched, and his spirit will continue to live on through the countless hearts he inspired.”
The family also expressed appreciation for the kindness they’ve received amid their tragic loss.
