Breaking: Dallas Cowboys Hall Of Famer And Super Bowl Champion Sadly Passes Away At The Age Of 52
It was a heartbreaking day for many Dallas Cowboys fans on Monday when the team released a statement that legendary offensive lineman Larry Allen passed away.
Here is the statement the Cowboys released about the sad passing of one of the best players to ever play for the organization.
"The Dallas Cowboys are very saddened to share that Cowboys legend, Super Bowl Champion, Cowboys Ring of Honor member, and Pro Football Hall of Famer Larry Allen passed away suddenly while on vacation in Mexico with his family on Sunday. Larry, known for his great athleticism and incredible strength, was one of the most respected, accomplished offensive linemen to ever play in the NFL. His versatility and dependability were also signature parts of his career. Through that, he continued to serve as inspiration for many other players defining what it meant to be a great teammate, competitor and winner.
He was deeply loved and cared for by his wife, Janelle – whom he referred to as his heart and soul, his daughters Jayla and Loriana and son, Larry III.
The Jones family and the Cowboys extend their deepest condolences, thoughts and prayers to the Allen family and grieve along with the many other friends and Cowboys teammates that also loved Larry.
Memorial service arrangements and details will be announced in the near future."
Allen was the Cowboys' 46th pick in the 1994 NFL Draft out of Sonoma State, and his career immediately took off.
The Sonoma State Alum was named to 11 Pro Bowls and Six All-Pro NFL First Teams in his 14 seasons, spending 12 in Dallas and two with the San Francisco 49ers and won a Super Bowl XXX with the Cowboys in 1996.
Allen was a part of two All-Decade teams in the 1990s and 2000s and was elected to the Pro Football Hall Of Fame in 2013.
