Who scored for the Cowboys today? Weird touchdown has Dallas fans asking questions

The Dallas Cowboys have a ton of offensive firepower.

But their first touchdown on Monday Night Football in Week 9 required none of it. They got on the board against the Arizona Cardinals on special teams.

In the first half, the Cowboys got through toward a punt attempt and crushed a block. It was Sam Williams who got credit for the blocked punt.

The ball went squirting back toward the end zone, and it began to slow right as it reached the paint of paydirt.

Who scored for the Cowboys today?

The player who ran down that blocked punt was Marshawn Kneeland.

The big guy wearing No. 94 slowed his feet down as he got close, knowing he had to avoid touching any part of the back of the end zone, or knocking the ball that way, when he fell on the football.

Kneeland did it just right, totally under control.

There was no return needed. He fell on the football right in the end zone.

And instead of CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens or Javonte Williams, it was the defensive player Kneeland, out there on special teams, who got on the board with a TD.
