TAMPA — Vincent Jackson is best known as a terrific football player for the Bucs and Chargers who was named to three Pro Bowls. But his biggest legacy may be the lives he changed with his commitment to helping military families, the focus of his Jackson In Action 83 Foundation.
That foundation will continue even without its creator.
The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the death of Jackson, who was found in a Brandon hotel room Monday morning. He was 38.
Funeral arrangements have not been released, but it was requested Tuesday that in lieu of flowers, anyone wanting to honor Jackson donate to his foundation.
