Dallas Cowboys Legend Larry Allen Dies Suddenly

Dallas Cowboys icon and Pro Football Hall of Famer Larry Allen passed away at the age of 52. The Cowboys announced his sudden demise on Sunday while he was vacationing with his family in Mexico. Allen, drafted in the second round in 1994, spent the majority of his illustrious 14-season NFL career with the Cowboys, contributing significantly to their triumph over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Super Bowl 30 in January 1996. Renowned for his exceptional athleticism and extraordinary strength, Allen left an indelible mark on the league as one of the most revered offensive linemen in its history.

After his tenure with the Dallas Cowboys, Allen concluded his playing days with the San Francisco 49ers, earning his 11th and final Pro Bowl selection. His remarkable versatility and unwavering reliability were hallmarks of his career, serving as an inspiration to countless players and defining the essence of being a stellar teammate, competitor and winner. In 2013, Allen rightfully earned enshrinement in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, a testament to his remarkable contributions to the sport.

The Cowboys, in a heartfelt statement, emphasized Allen’s profound impact not only on the field but also within his family. He was deeply cherished by his wife, Janelle, whom he lovingly referred to as his heart and soul, as well as his daughters Jayla and Loriana and his son, Larry III.
