JOGGING WHILE BLACK

[HairOfTheDog]

Turns out, Ahmaud Arbery's cousin is Detroit Lion's safety Tracy Walker.



When the video of his 25-year-old cousin's killing appeared online, Walker says, he watched it "no exaggeration, over 100 times," each time leaving him more frustrated, more angry and more "pissed off."

The two grew up living across the street from each other and stayed close after Walker went to play for the NFL. Walker described Arbery as a great soul and a clown who made everybody laugh.

Walker already, coincidentally, wears Arbery's high school number, No. 21, and he plans to write Arbery's initials on his cleats when the NFL resumes. He also is planning to wear Arbery's T-shirts underneath his jersey during games as another way to remember his cousin.

Walker said he and his family would like to see the people involved in Arbery's death held responsible. "We want justice for Ahmaud," Walker said. "We want the proper justice."
