Adam Thielen paid tribute to Alex Trebek with some pretty sweet Jeopardy! cleats

“We will miss you, Alex. – $19,000.”

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen opened the scoring in Monday night’s Vikings-Bears game with a very tricky one-handed touchdown catch that rightly had fans in awe.

He also had fans in awe of the cleats that he wore during pregame warmups, as they featured a picture of the late Alex Trebek with the message “We will miss you, Alex. – $19,000.” Thielen wears No. 19 for the Vikings.

The legendary Trebek passed away last week after a long battle with cancer. He was 80 years old.

These cleats that Thielen wore before Monday night’s game at Soldier Field in Chicago were pretty awesome:
