McKinnon wore these pregame cleats before Sunday's game against the Eagles to honor the late gorilla Harambe, who was shot during the summer at the Cincinnati Zoo to stop him from harming a boy. The internet became obsessed with Harambe.
The Vikings honored Harambe earlier in the season as well.
In September, the NFL banned customized Harambe jerseys.
