It’s been months since the Vikings family lost a star in Khyree Jackson in a tragic car crash. It was certainly a saddening experience for everyone, as the youngster never got to see the Sunday night lights with the team. However, his presence hasn’t faded, as Khyree’s teammates continue to keep him in their thoughts week after week.

As the Vikings prepare to face the Detroit Lions at US Bank Stadium, Minnesota players were seen donning t-shirts with Khyree Jackson’s pictures and graphics to honor their late teammate.
A clip shared by Fox Sports showed linebacker Dallas Turner wearing a similar shirt:

This heartening gesture has even made the fans emotional. “Respect…miss u KJ! Let’s get a dub for him!” one Vikings fan commented.
Another fan lauded Turner for showing love to Khyree every week without fail as he wrote, “Dallas Turner been doing this all year.”
That said, this wasn’t the only time the Vikings remembered their lost member, as the team set up a locker with Khyree’s number 31 jersey to honor the late cornerback during their London trip earlier this month.
