NFL makes request to all teams in honor of Marshawn Kneeland
The NFL wants every team to honor the memory of the late Marshawn Kneeland.

News of Kneeland’s death stunned the NFL world earlier this week. The Texas Department of Public Safety released a statement on Thursday that the Dallas Cowboys defensive end had died by suicide through a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Kneeland was 24.
The NFL has reportedly asked every NFL team to make a small, but potentially powerful gesture in honor of Kneeland during their pregame ceremonies this week. Every game held on Sunday and Monday will hold a moment of silence for Kneeland, followed by a leaguewide message read in every stadium.
“If you or someone you know is struggling or needs emotional support, please call or text 988. The Suicide and Crisis Lifeline is available 24-7 to help,” the statement will read.
The NFL sent a memo to all teams Friday, asking them to hold a moment of silence Sunday as part of the pre-game ceremonies in memory of the late Cowboys defensive end Marshawn Kneeland.

The Denver Broncos were the first to honor Kneeland during their “Thursday Night Football” matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. The teams held a moment of silence before kickoff and flashed the image of the Cowboys youngster on the Jumbotron inside Empower Field at Mile High in Denver, Colorado.
The Cowboys picked Kneeland in the second round of last year’s draft. The Western Michigan alum tallied a sack and 26 combined tackles across his two seasons with Dallas.
Roman Anthony Kicks Back After Hotel Drama: ‘I’m Buying The Entire Building’ – Red Sox Star Takes Control In Shocking Move That Leaves The Nation Stunned


Boston Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony has made headlines again — this time for an extraordinary turn of events that have left both fans and critics in shock. After being escorted out of a luxury hotel in Las Vegas due to a reported altercation, Anthony surprised everyone by returning the very next day — not to address the incident, but to make an audacious move that left everyone speechless. Anthony didn’t come back for an apology; instead, he came to purchase the entire building.
The incident began when Anthony was reportedly involved in a confrontation with hotel staff, leading to his immediate removal from the premises. While the details of the altercation remain unclear, the incident quickly went viral, and many speculated that Anthony’s fiery personality had flared up once again. However, in true Anthony fashion, the young star made sure that his return was anything but conventional.
"A Bold Move"
Instead of returning in shame or to face consequences, Anthony reportedly walked into the same luxurious hotel the following day with a simple, yet jaw-dropping announcement: "I’m buying the whole building." The hotel, which had been the scene of the previous night’s drama, now found itself in the midst of a complete turnaround as Anthony negotiated a deal to purchase the property outright.
Eyewitnesses described the scene as surreal. "It was clear that he wasn’t just walking back in for any ordinary reason," said one source close to the hotel. "Roman Anthony walked in with his usual confidence, but this time, it wasn’t about baseball. He was there to make a statement, and he did it in the most unexpected way possible."
"It’s Not About Anger, It’s About Control"
Anthony, who has often been known for his fiery personality and his on-field potential, gave a brief comment to the media regarding his actions. "I’ve faced a lot of criticism and negativity throughout my career, and I’m used to that," Anthony said. "But this wasn’t about revenge or anger. It was about taking control of my narrative. When people try to push you down, you have the choice to either fight back in the way they expect or do something they’ll never see coming."
The decision to buy the hotel came as a shock to both fans and critics alike. For many, it seemed like a fitting response to the ongoing scrutiny he’s faced, not just for his behavior but also for his presence off the field. Anthony, one of the most talked-about prospects in MLB, has added another layer to his already intriguing public image.
"From Outcast to Owner"
What seemed like a fall from grace for Anthony quickly turned into a headline-making redemption story. By purchasing the hotel, Anthony not only gained control of the space where he was once shunned, but he also made a bold statement about his ability to turn any situation into an opportunity. The acquisition has caused many to question the motivations behind the purchase — whether it’s a mere power play or an attempt to reclaim his position in Las Vegas in a way only Anthony could.
For now, the Red Sox’s rising star has remained silent on his future plans for the property, but speculation runs wild. Some believe it’s a move to create a personal sanctuary, while others think Anthony might be laying the groundwork for a future business venture outside of baseball.
"A Complex Legacy"
As Anthony continues to develop as a player and navigate the ups and downs of his career, this latest chapter shows that he’s still capable of making waves both on and off the field. His involvement in the altercation may have been the catalyst for the hotel incident, but his unorthodox response has once again put him in the spotlight.
In a city known for its larger-than-life personalities, Roman Anthony has proven that he’s not just a player with immense potential on the field — he’s a man who knows how to make an unforgettable impression, no matter the circumstances.
