Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson helped to create custom cleats honoring George Floyd, which he showed off on Instagram on Thursday.
"I'm making my mark, Regardless of the feedback," Jackson wrote in the caption. "I'm taking a stance on justice & using my platform to stand for what’s right !!"
The cleats were created by Marcus Rivero of Soles By Sir.
Floyd was killed while in the custody of Minneapolis police when an officer knelt on his neck for a reported eight minutes and 46 seconds. Jackson referenced that time on his cleats.
