Alabama A&M Football Player Medrick Burnett Jr. Dies Weeks After Game Injury
Before his death was officially confirmed, the university mistakenly announced it prematurely.
Medrick Burnett Jr, a 20-year-old linebacker at Alabama A&M University, succumbed to a head injury he suffered during the Magic City Classic on Oct. 26
The Jefferson County Coroner’s office confirmed in a statement to People Magazine that Burnett did die on Nov. 27, but it was later than originally reported by Alabama A&M University.
According to the coroner’s office, Burnett “received an injury while playing in the Magic City Classic football game” at Legion Field in Birmingham on Oct. 26. Burnett died at a local hospital a month later, and the office also noted in their statement that “all questions pertaining to the death should be made to the Alabama A&M University.”
Shortly after Burnett was injured, his older sister, Dominience James, started a GoFundMe to help with the costs of getting their parents from California to be by his side during his treatment.
