Vikings' Dallas Turner Honors Khyree Jackson: As Long as I'm Alive I'll Rep His Name

Minnesota Vikings rookie linebacker Dallas Turner knew Khyree Jackson well before they were both part of the NFC North team's 2024 draft class, and he took time before Thursday's practice to honor the cornerback who died in a car accident on July 6 at the age of 24.

As ESPN's Kevin Seifert shared, Turner knelt at one of the memorials the team put in place and said he will attend Jackson's funeral on Friday:

"I talk to him all the time ... and get the chills every single time I talk to him," Turner said.
