Big D closed the season without a playoff run, but now football took a step back for DE Kenny Clark. The vet lineman shared a personal message on Insta that shifted focus away from wins and losses and toward family, gratitude, and perspective.
Early Sunday, Clark posted a series of photos featuring his father, Kenneth Clark Sr., alongside family moments. The caption conveyed calm reflection rather than heartbreak. It showed appreciation for time spent rather than focus on the pain of separation.
Clark's post reads, “God gave us 3 years to be with you again, and we enjoyed every second of it. I’m just thankful to be a part of your story, big homie. I love you ♾️ Rest In Peace, Dad 🕊️.”
The timing followed a challenging season for Dallas, yet Clark’s message carried clarity. It reminded fans and teammates that careers move fast, but personal moments matter more. Within minutes, the post drew attention from across the NFL, setting a supportive and respectful tone.
George Pickens and the NFL Community Support Kenny Clark in Tough Times
Green Bay Packers defensive lineman Kenny Clark speaks to media on May 10, 2023, at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wis.
Cowboys WR George Pickens was among those who responded publicly. Pickens commented directly under Clark’s Instagram post. His message stayed simple and sincere. “🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 prayers to you and your family,” Pickens wrote, reflecting the mood shared across the league.
Clark’s relationship with his father added depth to the moment. Kenneth Clark Sr. spent close to 19 years in prison while his son built his NFL career. Despite that distance, Clark often spoke about staying connected. When his father was released in 2023, the family reunited after nearly two decades apart. Those three years became central to Clark’s life, as he clearly acknowledged in his post.
Fans from different teams joined the conversation. Messages focused on family, faith, and appreciation for second chances. Many addressed Clark’s entire family, not just the player. The comments showed understanding rather than curiosity. Clark did not share the cause of death and did not follow up publicly.
As the Cowboys move into the offseason, Clark’s message continues to resonate. It highlighted maturity, gratitude, and balance.
