In a new statement, Catalina Mancera, girlfriend of late Dallas Cowboys star Marshawn Kneeland, says the loss of the second-year defensive end has left her feeling “broken.”

“My sweet baby, words could never express how broken I feel, you’re my everything,” Mancera, 22, wrote via Facebook on Monday, November 10, alongside a photo of the couple. “I’ll love you forever my beautiful angel.”

Two days later, news broke that Mancera is pregnant with the couple’s first baby.

Kneeland, who was 24, died of apparent suicide in the early morning hours of Thursday, November 6. Authorities found his body following a brief police chase on the Dallas Parkway. Kneeland initially fled as state troopers attempted to pull him over for a traffic violation. They found his car abandoned hours later.
