He didn't deserve this, just a good kid having his life stolen by a another awful person

[@loyacegrayes5068]

A unlawful person who will barely do any time for it.

[@Laria4life]

I know right, my daughter saw the aftermath to this accident

[@lorenheaton7524]

No one does!

[@skyhawk4946]

Horrible tragedy. Nothing good happens after midnight in bars and on the roads.

[@jakefez1031]

just a bad feeling nothing positive here. Sad moment in time.

[@Uncultured_Barbarian465]

From across the river, this Packers fan reaches out. This kid had just reached his dream and he's gone way too soon. My condolences to his family and friends.

[@coopdog9524]

RIP Khyree. So sad.

[@EV-82]

You’re spot on Judd. I was talking to my wife about that yesterday. When I was his age I thought I was invincible. It’s so sad looking at his Twitter, and seeing his last tweet was of him in a Vikings uniform. The young man realized his dream and made it to NFL. God bless those kids 🙏🏽

[@bobslenker27]

Yep. I should be dead too based on the stuff my friends and I did in those days. And if not, certainly should have been arrested.

[@gregoryhough2488]

Being a fan from Maryland, this really hits me hard. I was so excited to see Kyree succeed. Such a tragedy for a young man with so much talent and carisma. RIP Kyree!!!😢

[@Jamesparsonx]

Likewise 💔 I’m from Maryland as well and it’s heartbreaking I was so excited for Khyree this season he was one of my favorite picks from the draft

[@TylerTruckDriver]

Whole life ahead of him. Such a young man with a very bright future. RIP Khyree.

[@Badger06]

As a 24 year old Vikings fan.. I was excited to see Jackson grow as a player and his predraft story is incredible.. this is far beyond football though.. best wishes for the family and friends of those 3 young men

[@jeffaltier5582]

He was the same age as my youngest daughter, so this hits hard. Peace to his family.

[@Laria4life]

He graduated with my niece from Wise High School c/o 2017.

[@scottchavez1688]

He worked his entire life to live his dream, and just when he's about to....gone. As a 52 yr old man knowing how much life he had life it's just so horrific.

[@AhJeezEnt]

RIP to a young dude gone way too soon, hate to see it

[@JDilli]

I am sad man, all 3 of these kids, gone just breaks my heart and tears in my eyes, I’m hurt, for everyone 🙏😓

[@jonathan45732]

I was so excited to watch this guy start for us this year. His story is incredible and no doubt will live on. Words can’t even fully describe how awful this was and how big of a loss it was for a lot of people. He and his friends were so young and had so much ahead of them. The mistake of one sadly can take away so much from so many people.

[@coreypatterson1007]

Not a vikings fan but im sorry for your loss way too young! Rip khyree

[@cbodine100]

I really appreciated Purple Insider’s coverage yesterday. Matthew’s comments were perfectly appropriate and very comforting. I was expecting to hear from you too.

[@84goat28]

This guy was going to make so a huge impact for this team. Rest easy.

[@lashawnjordan1336]

this is the worse news ever!! Khyree Jackson had so much life ahead of him! I’m praying for his family and friends!😭😭😭😭💔! the Vikings should dedicate the season to khyree Jackson!

[@SR95_]

Rip khyree and the other two gentleman. Too young and endless potential

[@DJBraun-px8sd]

From what I've seen, he was a passenger in a car that was hit by another car, police have said alcohol may have played a part in the other car hitting them. From everything I've seen, the car he was in was doing nothing wrong

[@iggexec]

You were pro. You shouldn’t be out at 3:15 am. C’mon man 3:15 am ain’t good

[@Bob-vf1dz]

So sad. Sorry for his loved ones. He would have been a great player.

[@kevinfessler6831]

Khyree had just begun to realize his dream. His path was not linear. He had some stops and starts along the way, but persevered and made it into the NFL only to have it all taken away in an instant. Much love to his family, friends, as well as the Vikings Organization.

[@monkus7493]

So sad 😢 prayers go out to the family and friends and the vikings organization 🙏

[@wiscored88]

Very classy guys, 🙏🙏🙏

[@tedgar9563]

Heartbreaking. Best wishes to his friends and family.

[@adrianhorien5211]

I hate drink/driving. I've never liked being drunk; not even catching a buzz. I cherish clear thinking.

[@raymondhoagland4976]

So sad RIP Khyree 🙏Prayers to all of the families 💜

[@brentlarson2972]

R.I.P. Gone to soon.

[@seanharrison6719]

Absolutely devastating news. God rest their souls.

[@michaelvanamburg-he4fc]

My favorite player from this year’s draft is now forever a Viking

[@Jasonguitar73]

I one hundred percent agree with phil here, these days with uber lyft and phones, etc.There's no reason to drive after drinking.

[@geeleeskolvikes]

I would put Harris Teeter grocery store in the old school Byerlys/Lunds box. May God grant eternal rest unto Khyree Jackson and his two friends. May perpetual light shine upon them. Prayers for their families and friends through this most difficult time.🙏

[@MacDaddyShack23]

This was exactly what I said, glad I'm not the only one who connected those chains. And, of course, RIP Khyree.

[@larryv.83]

Thanks for the video about Kyree guys. So sad about his death but life goes on. I feel sorry for his family and friends. R I P

[@michaelstusiak5902]

RIP, Kyhree.

[@SuperMex99]

Just totally bummed out. It truly is tough to be a Vikings fan. Anytime we feel good about our squad, something tragic like this happens. Sad. Pray for his family.

[@clintonreisig]

🙏 Praying for the loved ones

[@TheBD97]

Just awful news to wake up to yesterday. Some things are bigger than football. Let’s go and win it for Jackson

[@tnshsd3526]

Viking fans Very sorry for the loss. RIP Khyree

[@Vikings1974]

I’m sorry but you keep saying that there is 1 guy but you need to mention the other 2 people when you say his name sorry for the families. R.I.P. all 3 of those kids ❤️✝️

[@pyrohectic7749]

Why Do The good have to die young? Such tragic news. Life is so precious. Rip Khyree & his two friends. Condolences 💐 to their families and loved ones .

[@Imadetroitguy]

Condolences to the Jackson family and friends and teammates. Tragic..

[@JustLewey]

Well done Gentlemen. Thank you for your insights and perspective.

[@nikkicovington6389]

It is so devastated but Rest In Peace Khyree Jackson

[@pierrekid]

We always seem to have horrible situations and sadness like this. From Stringer to continual tragedies. I was really excited to see this person reach his dreams. A great smile and full of hope.

[@craigsiegrist6120]

I'm crying so hard my Thoughts in prayers are with is family😢

[@banksda150]

Guys please be careful on the road, always be aware for your safety and the other drivers. I witness accidents everyday while trucking and it’s almost always caused by some aggressive drunk or high daredevil.

[@Abreezy-nl6yc]

Damn man I didn’t even know he was a dmv native, was really excited to see him play in Flores system just tragic, had so much potential and talent RIP to all 3 of them

[@2TonedSkol]

R.I.P. Khyrie Jackson 🙏

[@Flash___]

rip

[@dillondean6572]

I am so sad to see him gone. With the potential he had, he would have thrived in Flores system and could have taken the starting cb role. Thoughts and prayers out to the family of all the people involved.

[@nathanabraham4639]

Bless everyone and hug your love ones

[@wiscored88]

RIP Khyree…so much promise, and gone way too soon, drunk and or wreckless driving is very unnecessary.

[@tonyowens6802]

Pardon my ignorance but was this the young man that got the phone call from the Vikes while he was out shopping? Poor kid…

[@brinaldi81]

Man what a terrible loss. Thanks for keeping it measured and respectful and not being just another channel that just glosses over it and tried to Power through it.. not the time. Respect RIP Mr Jackson

[@wolfofthetwincities5704]

Drinking and Driving is such an easily preventable thing it's so sad. Rest in Peace

[@chadharris7988]

I think yall did a good job covering this. RIP Kyrie and the 2 other young gentlemen.

[@justanotherfarmer7091]

I'll never forget his draft day conversation and saying we got the best corner by far. I was really hoping for that reality and I know b Flo was excited about that pick... Rest in peace Khyree!

[@AnthonyEdwardsGOAT1]

Rip just tragic news man😓

[@jeffreysaunders3536]

Thanks for coming on today, guys. Tragic.

[@discgolf2479]

Judd says think about yourself at that age, I just turned 25, never drove drunk, never would even think of it, but that’s probably because I have seen my mother get 2 DUIs, so I know the seriousness of these situations

[@robe2504]

Hard to actually believe. Just a tragedy for all 3 young school friends. I thought he was going to become our CB1 this season.

[@safeTbob71]

Thankfully having KOC in the fold will greatly benefit the Vikings in this situation, his empathy and patience is a super power.

[@laredolassoo]

Very good discussion.

[@CharlesFunches-uy3wi]

Rest in peace brother. Prayer to your family. Was looking forward to rooting for you on Sundays.

[@bubbacarlson333]

RIP Kyhree gone way too soon thoughts and prayers to his family 🙏🏻

[@heinzbucksandcastle2053]

This marks 2 defensive backs drafted by MN since 2020 that died in a late night mva. What the hell guys, stay home and live.

[@richborn6700]

And Addison getting stopped going 140 on a highway late at night. I'm 30 I get being young and feeling invincible like nothing bad can happen. But this proves you don't even have to be the one drinking, a lot of times it's the people struck by the drunk driver that suffer worse than they dod

[@ply2k461]

Prime example why you should never drink and drive cause the person you hit could be like Khyree and now their life ends very very sad day R.I.P

[@heathatwood4123]

sad day indeed....

[@djangorestraind596]

Rip Khyree🙏

[@Landis_Grant]

There are articles saying that the drunk female driver in the Infiniti knew Khyree Jackson.

[@rowan6585]

So sad 😢😢😢

[@daviddidder3781]

Superstar Mike Morris was right, nothing good happens after 2am. 🙏

[@zymirparker8258]

Rip

[@LprogressivesANDliberals]

Our souls go to the next place and our body goes back to Mother Earth by worm food or ashes. Make your peace and I love yous! Thanks khyree see you in the next life 🟣🟡

[@Selling-McCarthyism]

Prayers to Khyree’s family. 1. Don’t drink and drive 2. Don’t drive past midnight 3. Don’t be Jordan Addison or Rashee Rice. Stay safe, the world is a terrible and sad place. Your consequences of drinking and driving, speed racing etc could end the life of anyone.

[@richborn6700]

Also don't be Henry Ruggs

[@davidpipher5860]

And as usual..The drunk driver walked away w/o any injuries..After murdering 3 innocent kid's !!

[@leonardshevlin7260]

His friends were also young men robbed of decades of living and being in the lives of family and friends and communities.

[@MacDaddyShack23]

Harris Teeter is a Lunds/Byerlys equivalent. Born and raised in MN, lived there from 1991-2019 before moving to SC. RIP Khyree. What a shame to hit the threshold of your dreams and then have all the rewards of the hard work get taken away by someone who's messing up their life.

[@baldyandtheoaf]

RIP

[@mattlucht3829]

Absolutely NOT making an excuse. I live in Rual SW MN and their isn't ubers available in Redwood Falls, and surrounding cities. But obviously their are also the fact u have a friend pick u up. Also always have a plan. So Sad!! Makes 0 sense. Vikingsnation sends prayers 🙏 to Kyree and his two friends family.

[@leonardshevlin7260]

Has Brian Flores released a statement?

[@iggexec]

Loved his energy. My wife was so excited x10 of diggs. But being a pro means not being on the road at 3:15am. Drills start at 7. C’mon it sucks hey didn’t learn these habits. RIP. RIP buddy. You could have

[@iggexec]

How does impact Addison with this given last years ….speed debacle.

[@joshnewman6667]

God bless all there families, thanks guys for at least judd and mackey understand, unlike the pioneer press that guy should be fired

[@Buzzbomb23]

So sad.

[@Michael-ns4du]

I. Love. You. My. Brother. So. Sorry. For. Your. Passing. S. K. O. L. On😢😢😢

[@danielbrueggemann3058]

This has struck a nerve with me i cant get over this BS its not the first time a deunk person killed someone but i can't understand why would you think its a good idea i mean we have uber lyft taxi friends theres so many options KJ was my draft crush 🥰 i couldn't wait for anything to get a peep of him this sucks 😭 heartbroken 😔 not to mention i doubt that DC sentences this person itll be a slap on the wrist for taking a life sad day people its just sad

[@kanesword9528]

Horrible accident, but nothing good happens at 3am on the highways. Hopefully people will learn from this and no other families need to suffer a loss like this.

[@PoschSpice30]

Speaking of Motzko I know for a fact when he was at SCSU and they’d take a bus somewhere on a shorter trip. After some of the games he’d have the bus driver wait a bit so by the time the team got home it’d be after 2 in the morning so all the bars would be closed

[@cowgirlkelle5411]

sad so sad he just began his story but i always tell my 20 year olds nothing good happens after midnight. People drive crazy and hard to prevent staying safe.

[@chrisheichel3163]

Judds best episode to date....not even close.

[@BubbaScott69]

Protect your dreams at all costs. Because of decisions that were made by somebody, their dreams came to an end.

[@lennox21]

Enjoy your life, Enjoy your friends and family, Life is so short and things like this Awful and Horrible Tragedy Just brings that thought to the front of my mind, My Condolences to all the Family and Friends who lost someone and Just Damn.... Just Damn...... Rip Khyree Jackson. I hope the Vikings wear a patch or Honor him during the season somehow.

[@Skierforlife1000]

Harris teeter is similar to piggly wiggly. Both mostly in the southeast corner of the states. Generic grocery store, more expensive then Aldi/walmart, less expensive than Publix/fill in the expensive grocery store of your town.

[@Clemfandang0]

Horrible news

[@martymartin1632]

Khyree and his friends didn't know the others that were involved.

[@anthonyslazas6413]

Sad news

[@peterlois1086]

24 is just too young

[@dorothydenninger5983]

RIP Khyree, Im sure you would've went far

[@jasongallagher6845]

What matters in life is what you choose to have matter. Personally there's no secret on what it all means, Individuals decide what is important and attach meaning to it. Rip

[@bobslenker27]

Whatever happened, everyone knows that nothing good ever happens at 3:15am.

[@bouchecaldwell330]

Please don't be sad. Understand that these things are handled at HIS Avatar Level. We will miss him and must grieve for a short time but His Family called Him in.
