I’m incredibly honored to receive the Salute to Service Award and to be recognized alongside so many across the league who are committed to supporting our military community. This honor means a lot because it reflects the strength, sacrifice, and resilience of the men and women who serve our country. Football has given me a platform, and I believe it comes with a responsibility to serve others the right way. As an athlete, I’ve been fortunate to have access to the best care and recovery resources available, and I believe our service members and veterans deserve that same level of intentional support as they heal from both the visible and invisible wounds of service. Through the Christian McCaffrey Foundation and our 23 and Troops initiative, we’re committed to helping connect military families, service members, and veterans with the care they need on their path to healing. I’m grateful for this recognition, but the real credit belongs to the men and women who serve. This is for them.
