Georgia Southern University has honored Indianapolis Colts linebacker Edwin Jackson Walt Aikens Jersey , an alumnus killed by a drunken driver in February.
News outlets report Jackson's parents, Wesley and Mary Jackson, were presented with his honorary bachelor of science degree during Saturday's commencement ceremony. Wesley Jackson yelled "Georgia" as they left the stage, and was met by a "Southern" from the crowd.
The 26-year-old and his Uber driver Odell Beckham Jr Jersey , 54-year-old Jeffrey Monroe, were killed in Indiana when authorities say they were struck by 37-year-old Manuel Orrego-Savala. Authorities say Orrego-Savala was living in the U.S. illegally and didn't have a license.
