An American football cornerback, Khyree Jackson, passed away in a car crash on July 6, 2024. He was just 24 years old at the time of his demise.
After four years of his college football career, Khyree was all set to make his NFL debut in 2024 as the Minnesota Vikings drafted him for the fourth round just two months before.
A bright future was awaiting him but everything finished in a blink of an eye. Since Khyree Jackson was yet to establish himself as a public figure, details on his love life and girlfriend were far beyond to be revealed in the media; it’s quite obvious, isn’t it?

However, we highly believe that the relationship status of emerging football player was single. Whatever social media presence he had before his passing doesn’t provide any information about him having a girlfriend.
Khyree appeared to be pretty focused on his sports career, but unfortunately, he met his ultimate demise at such a young age.
Khyree Jackson’s mother, Ebbony Jackson, and father Raymond Jackson, survived him
While leaving the living world, the 24-year-old Khyree left his parents Ebbony and Raymond behind whom he wanted to make proud by achieving so much in his life.
When Khyree learned that he had been picked for the 2024 NFL draft back in April, he made a first call to his mother, Ebbony, to share his joy for his first big achievement. That was obviously a celebratory moment for the Jackson family.
But within two months, such an unfortunate incident occurred. After Khyree’s passing news emerged, Vikings manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah released a statement saying, “I am heartbroken by the loss of Khyree…Khyree wanted to accomplish both professionally and personally.”
Meanwhile, Khyree’s colleagues and the whole sports world are mourning his loss.
As many are expressing their deepest condolences to the grieving family, we the SuperSlice family, also pray for God to provide strength to his family to overcome such a difficult situation and may the passing soul rest in paradise.
