Dak Prescott had the words “One Love” written on his wrist tape for Monday night’s matchup against the Raiders. It was his way of honoring Cowboys teammate Marshawn Kneeland during the team’s first game since the second-year defensive end tragically took his own life from an apparent self-inflected gunshot wound. He was only 24.
I apologize in advance if I was too frank with how Kneeland died. I don’t mean to be disrespectful. I just no longer want suicide to be a difficult conversation. It’s time we stop shying away from the topic. There’s no shame in asking for help. And there should absolutely be no shame in revealing that a loved one died by suicide.
