Texans middle linebacker Brian Cushing has been nominated for the annual Salute to Service Award given to an NFL player committed to honoring and supporting the military community.
The award, presented by the USAA and the NFL, will announce finalists in January, with the winner to be recognized at the NFL Honors awards show in San Francisco before Super Bowl 50.
Cushing’s foundation held a charity benefit to assist military veterans and their families, raising more than $250,000.
Past winners of the award include Carolina Panthers defensive end Jared Allen, Baltimore Ravens coach John Harbaugh, Carolina Panthers cornerback Charles Tillman and the late Tennessee Titans and Oilers owner Bud Adams, a World War II veteran.
