DALLAS, T.X.— On Thursday morning, the Dallas Cowboys announced the tragic passing of Marshawn Kneeland, a 24-year-old defensive lineman in his second season with the team.

Once the Dallas Cowboys are back in action for the second half of the season, they need to give these 3 players more snaps.

There are no more big-time deals or extensions looming for this team. George Pickens is the last one that the team has to take care of, and when they do they can truly start to look for external help whether by way of free agency or through the draft with their multiple firsts.

Cowboys defensive end Marshawn Kneeland has died, the team announced on Thursday. He was 24.

The Dallas Cowboys must navigate their way through tragedy, but former QB Cooper Rush says they're in good hands with head coach Brian Schottenheimer.
