USAA on Thursday announced the three finalists for the NFL’s Salute to Service Award, and a dynasty in San Francisco<\/a> could be on the rise.<\/p>\n

After 49ers star George Kittle took home the award last year, Christian McCaffrey<\/a> is among three finalists for the league’s award, along with Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson and Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones as the finalists \u2014 Jones was a finalist last year, as well.<\/p>\n

“The finalists for the 15th Annual Salute to Service Award presented by USAA have used their platforms to be exceptional advocates for the military community, reminding us that service doesn\u2019t stop when the uniform comes off,” Maj. Gen. (Ret.) Bob Whittle, Senior Vice President and Head of Military Affairs at USAA, said in a release.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“The NFL and USAA applaud Jake Ferguson, Aaron Jones, and Christian McCaffrey as deserving finalists who have demonstrated exactly what the award stands for \u2014 using the power of football to connect with, empower, appreciate and uplift our service members, veterans and their families.”<\/p>\n

McCaffrey launched 23 and Troops in 2021 to focus on post-traumatic stress and athlete-level care for veterans. The foundation has raised $700,000 for military support<\/a> and paid off holiday layaway for 515 military families.<\/p>\n
