The Kneeland family also released a statement shortly thereafter<\/a>, which was especially heartbreaking<\/a>, saying, “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.\u201d<\/p>\n

It was Kneeland’s girlfriend, Catalina, mentioned in the official statement from the Cowboys, that was the one that had alerted authorities, telling them she was worried he would “end it all.”<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, it was too late, and Kneeland died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound<\/a>, which was ruled a suicide by the Texas Department of Public Safety.<\/p>\n

Catalina had been a proud supporter of Kneeland, a second-round pick out of Western Michigan in the 2024 NFL Draft, often showing off her custom fits on Dallas game-days.<\/p>\n

Only last month, Catalina shared a photo of the two of them, which is the last slide in the Instagram post below.<\/p>\n

It’s unclear if Catalina was running the apparel Instagram handle SZN Stitches<\/a>, which highlighted her stylish fits, but it’s clear she has a passion for fashion.<\/p>\n

It’s a devastating time for her, the Kneeland family, and all of their friends.<\/p>\n

His former college coach, Lance Taylor, summed summed it up best<\/a>. <\/p>\n

“His leadership, energy, and smile were infectious, and he left a lasting impact on everyone.. His passion for life and his teammates were unmatched.”<\/p>\n
