Detroit Lions cornerback Terrion Arnold has decided to change his jersey number from 0 to 6 as a tribute to his late friend and teammate Khyree Jackson. Jackson, who was a rookie cornerback for the Minnesota Vikings, tragically passed away in a car accident last July alongside two high school friends. Arnold's switch is about more than just numbers; it's deeply personal and meant to honor Jackson's legacy and influence on his life and career.

Arnold reflected on Jackson's competitive spirit and how it motivates him on the field, stating, 'Every time I look down at my jersey, I am reminded that my brother lives through me.' Teammates Brian Branch and Ryan Williams also emphasize the impact of Jackson's legacy, noting how they missed training camp to pay their respects at his funeral. Arnold's number change symbolizes a bond that extends beyond football, connecting them to Jackson's family and his enduring memory.
