Relatives of late Cowboys player Marshawn Kneeland speak out after shocking revelation about his girlfriend's pregnancy
The Story That Shook Cowboys Nation
The heartbreaking death of Dallas Cowboys rookie Marshawn Kneeland stunned the NFL world just weeks ago. But the emotional storm didn’t end there — it has only intensified.
After days of viral rumors and social media speculation, Marshawn’s parents have finally broken their silence regarding reports that his longtime girlfriend, Catalina, is pregnant with his child.
What should have been a private matter has exploded into public debate — and the statement from his grieving parents has sent shockwaves through the Cowboys community.
“We Didn’t Know Until the Internet Told Us”
In an exclusive interview with StarGrid Sports, Marshawn’s mother, Lisa Kneeland, revealed that the family learned about Catalina’s pregnancy from social media posts, not directly from her.

“It broke my heart all over again. We lost our son, and then we found out this way,” she said, visibly emotional. “I’m not angry… I’m just hurt. We wish she had told us first.”
Her words have divided fans. Some sympathize deeply with her pain. Others accuse the family of “inviting drama” instead of focusing on healing.
The Internet Explodes in Debate
Within hours of the interview airing, hashtags like #ForMarshawn, #Catalina, and #CowboysDrama began trending across X (Twitter).
Screenshots of private messages, old couple photos, and unverified “insider” claims spread like wildfire — turning grief into gossip.
One viral comment read:
“This isn’t just sad. It’s turning into a reality show — and everyone’s watching.”
Others defended the family, saying:
“They’re parents mourning their son. Let them speak their truth.”
“We Just Want What’s Best for the Baby”
Marshawn’s father, Derrick Kneeland, gave a calmer but equally emotional statement:
“That child is a part of Marshawn. We just want to be there. No matter what’s been said online, we’ll always open our doors.”
He also added that they haven’t spoken directly with Catalina since the funeral, a revelation that only fueled the public’s curiosity — and criticism.
Cowboys Locker Room Reacts
Sources inside the Cowboys organization say that several players, including CeeDee Lamb and Dak Prescott, have privately offered to mediate between the family and Catalina to “keep things from getting uglier.”
“This isn’t about headlines. It’s about love, and about Marshawn’s legacy,” one anonymous player told StarGrid.
But with emotions running high, the situation has become one of the most talked-about off-field dramas of the season.
What Happens Next?
Catalina has yet to issue a public response. Reports suggest she is several months pregnant and has been living quietly outside Dallas.
Meanwhile, the Kneeland family has requested privacy — though that request seems nearly impossible now, as the story continues to dominate NFL discussions.
