Denver Broncos Safety Kareem Jackson made all sorts of headlines following Sunday’s win against the Green Bay Packers. It was for all the wrong reasons, though, as Jackson was ejected following an illegal hit on Packers tight end Luke Musgrave.
On Monday, the NFL announced that they have slapped the Broncos player with a four-game suspension for his actions during Sunday’s contest.
Kareem Jackson Bombarded With Racist Messages After Win Vs. Green Bay Packers
Majority of fans lashed out at Jackson for his dangerous hit on Musgrave. The fact that the Broncos safety has been involved in more than a couple of controversial moments this season alone only compounded the supporters’ frustration toward the 35-year-old veteran.
As it turns out, however, some fans decided to take their anger a bit too far. A number of them decided to send direct messages to Jackson via social media. It appears that Jackson took the time to read most of the messages, and he has now decided to expose these fans for their racist attacks.
Jackson shared a handful of messages he got from Instagram from some random fans. The Broncos called out these so-called supporters for their shocking messages:

Regardless of how much you detest a player — or a person, for that matter — there’s just absolutely no excuse for using racial slurs. None whatsoever.
Jackson posted these messages to expose these bigoted fans. Let’s just hope they learn their lesson.
