Country-rock star Post Malone paid a heartfelt tribute to late Dallas Cowboys defensive end Marshawn Kneeland during his electrifying halftime performance at the Cowboys-Kansas City Chiefs Thanksgiving game. Kneeland, who tragically died by suicide on November 6, 2025, at the age of 24, was remembered by Malone for his incredible talent and dedication to the team. According to reports, Kneeland's death occurred after a police chase on November 5, which followed a traffic stop near Frisco. He had been a second-round draft pick in 2024 and had made significant contributions to the team, including scoring his first NFL touchdown just two days before his death. Malone's tribute, which included a 'No. 94' patch on his jacket and a heartfelt shoutout to the crowd, was met with widespread praise from fans and players alike. The Cowboys had previously held a moment of silence for Kneeland during their November 17 game against the Raiders, further highlighting the impact of his untimely passing. Kneeland's story is a tragic reminder of the importance of mental health support and the need for open conversations about struggles with mental health. The NFL and its teams have been working to promote mental health awareness and provide resources for players and staff. Malone's tribute serves as a poignant reminder of Kneeland's life and legacy, and the impact he had on those around him. As the NFL continues to work towards a more supportive and inclusive environment, stories like Kneeland's will help raise awareness and promote positive change.
