The Minnesota Vikings announced a few ways they are planning to honor the late Khyree Jackson, who died in a tragic car crash in early July, just a few months after he was selected in the fourth round of the 2024 NFL draft.
Vikings general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and coach Kevin O'Connell told reporters Monday that the organization will pay out the remainder of Jackson's $827,000 signing bonus on his rookie contract to his estate and will cover a "significant" portion of the funeral expenses, which is scheduled for Friday. A number of Vikings executives and players will be in attendance.
