Giants’ Kyler Fackrell providing free meals to kids during COVID-19 outbreak

Newly added New York Giants linebacker Kyler Fackrell and his wife are providing free meals for kids during the COVID-19 pandemic.

New York Giants linebacker Kyler Fackrell, who recently agreed to terms with the team, isn’t sitting around waiting out the hiatus brought on by the coronavirus. He has his wife, Liz, are giving back to the community where Fackrell became a star at Utah State.

The couple recently gave back to the community of Cache Valley, providing free meals for children 18 and under during a five-day span from Thursday, March 19, to Tuesday, March 24. The Fackrells partnered with Pauni Island Grill to serve 1,600 meals over the five day period.

“We know that our little local restaurants and shops are going to suffer from this quarantine, so we saw it as an opportunity to help them, as well. Hopefully, it encourages people to shop local if it is an option.” Liz Fackrell said in a release. “We have been very blessed with the success we have had and feel that we should give back to communities, and people that we care about as much as we can. We have felt so much support from the community since leaving Utah State, we hoped to show that same support during this time.”

The Fackrell’s have yet to come East due to the travel restrictions imposed by the virus and its effects. They appear to be a couple that the Giants community would easily embrace.
