According to the police, Khyree Jackson, 24, and two of his pals were slain by a speeding automobile. The Minnesota Vikings selected Jackson in the recent NFL Draft.
Jackson, the cornerback, and Hazel, the driver, were both pronounced dead at the scene, according to early Saturday morning confirmation from the police. Jackson’s teammate in high school was Hazel.
Another passenger and teammate, Anthony Lytton Jr., was taken to the hospital but was subsequently declared deceased as well.
Jackson shared a 10-slide Instagram carousel on Friday with the caption “Mmmhmmm” and images from his life, including one of him at Vikings practice.
Jackson also shared photos of himself flexing with a lizard, grinning on a beach with two parrots, and taking self-portraits in front of a mirror to flaunt his fashionable attire.
In an image from the post that contrasts “dreamers” and “doers,” a group of individuals classified as “dreamers” are shown watching a man classified as a “doer” ride a massive wave.
Jackson was a true “doer.”
According to TMZ, the football player attended Fort Scott Community College as his first college after earning his diploma from Dr. Henry Wise Jr. High School. After advancing through the ranks, he played for the Oregon Ducks and Alabama Crimson Tide.
Jackson was the best cornerback for the Ducks in 2023, according to Oregon Live, which was also his greatest season to date.
