On a Monday night weighted with grief, the Dallas Cowboys honored the brief life of Marshawn Kneeland — a 24-year-old teammate lost to apparent suicide just twelve days prior — by playing with a clarity and purpose that had eluded them for weeks. Dak Prescott's four touchdown passes carried Dallas past Las Vegas 33-16, snapping a prime-time losing streak and keeping alive a season that had been quietly unraveling. The scoreboard told one story; the moment of silence before kickoff told another, and perhaps the truer one.
