Marshawn Kneeland, a defensive end for the Dallas Cowboys, dies at age 24 following an incident that reports describe as an apparent suicide involving a self-inflicted gunshot wound, after a police chase and a crash. About seven months later, his longtime girlfriend Catalina Mancera gives birth to their son, Makhai. One outlet reports that the baby is born June 11, and that the child is named Makhai. The reports also note that a memorial fund is set up by the Cowboys organization to support Mancera and their child. Additional context included in one account states that Kneeland’s mother Wendy dies from a drug overdose a year earlier. The sources do not provide further medical or investigative details beyond the described circumstances of Kneeland’s death and the timing and birth information for Mancera and the child.
