MATHESON, Circuit Judge.
In 2012, O.K. Farms, Inc. hired J.B. Hunt Transportation, Inc. (“Hunt”) to deliver chickens to Roger Gentry, a poultry grower with a farm near Wister, Oklahoma. Hunt, in turn, hired truck driver Troy Ford to deliver the chickens. On August 12, 2012, friends and relatives of Mr. Gentry were present to help him receive the delivery, among them, Jimmy Hill (“Jimmy”). As Mr. Ford drove into the chicken house on a Moffett, a vehicle similar to a forklift, he hit Jimmy’s leg and injured his ankle. Jimmy’s ankle became infected, and he died on December 2, 2012.
