The defensive lineman from Havana teamed up with the Boys and Girls Club of the Big Bend to try and help families have a better Thanksgiving.

“You know, where I come from, I didn’t really have much. So, I just wanted to come back to a community in Tallahassee that didn’t have much and give back turkeys to the families in need. It was a blessing to me,” Jackson said.

Dozens of people lines up to receive turkeys and all the fixings this afternoon.
