Jayden Daniels shared a three word response and former LSU player Kyren Lacy's attorney disputed the negligent homicide charges levied against Lacy posthumously. On his Instagram story, the quarterback shared a picture of Lacy attending a press meet during his time with the Tigers.
Daniels accompanied the Instagram story with a caption that read:
"Love u brudda," with a heart shaped and prayed emoji.
Last year, Kyren Lacy was charged with the vehicular murder of a 78-year-old man in December 2024. After the accident, the former wide receiver fled the scene without informing the concerned authorities.
Lacy turned himself in and was arrested in January. The Lafourche Parish Sheriff's office granted him a $151,000 bail a day later and charged him with negligent homicide, felony hit-and-run and reckless driving.
In April, Kyren Lacy had a serious verbal argument with a family member. He allegedly fired a gun on the ground during the argument making his exit from the scene. The wide receiver was later found dead after his car crashed. His death took place just two days before his scheduled jury hearing on the December 2024 car crash.
Lacy's attorney has said that Lacy was not involved in the crash that took the life of the 78-year-old man. During an interview with HTV10, he said how the wide receiver was 70 yards behind the old man's car when he allegedly crashed into someone else. He also gave surveillance camera clips as evidence for the claims.
Kyren Lacy's mom worte an emotional message months after his death
In June, Lacy's mother, Kandace Washingon, remembered her son's life in a social media post.
On her Instagram handle, she posted a graphic of the former LSU wide receiver wearing his collegiate jersey. He also had white wings on his shoulders, depicting his journey to the afterlife. Kandace accompanied the post with a caption that read:
"This pain is unbearable! Jesus!! I miss my baby so much!!" Washington said.
"EVERYTHING reminds me of you! I love you son!! If I had my way, I would have never shared you with the world!! But your talent, love for others, and your humbleness made the world notice your light! It's still us against the world always!! Momma love you Kyren Lacy."
Lacy started his collegiate journey with Louisiana in 2020 before joining the LSU Tigers in 2022. He spent three seasons with them and registered 1,692 yards and 16Tds receiving.
