In a still developing story out of Washington DC, Minnesota Vikings rookie DT Jaylen Twyman, was shot today while visiting his aunt in Washington DC. He was one of three shooting victims. According to his agent, Drew Rosenhaus (through Adam Schefter), Twyman was “in the wrong place at the wrong time” and is expected to make a full recovery.

By some miracle, Jaylen seems to have escaped this incident, not only with his life, but without any bones or major bodily functions being compromised. According to Schefter, x-rays were negative and surgery will NOT be required.

The story was first reported by @killmoenews on Twitter.

Vikings’ rookie DT Jaylen Twyman was shot four times while visiting an aunt in Washington DC. “Wrong place, wrong time,” said his agent Drew Rosenhaus. “In talking to him today, he’s going to be OK – that’s all that matters. We’re thankful he’s OK. He will make a full recovery.”
