JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Jacksonville Jaguars will celebrate Salute to Service throughout the month of November, embracing Jacksonville's strong military ties and rich history of service.

Salute to Service is part of the NFL's year-round commitment to recognize and honor the military and veteran community. Through the initiative, NFL teams honor, empower and connect with service members, veterans and their families. During the last 15 years, more than $73 million has been raised for charitable organizations that support the military community through the campaign.

Today, LB Devin Lloyd was named the Jaguars' nominee for the 2025 Salute to Service Award presented by USAA, in recognition of his exceptional efforts to honor and support military and veteran communities. Lloyd, whose parents are both U.S. Navy veterans with a combined 40 years of service, has visited multiple military bases, including Naval Station Mayport and Naval Air Station (NAS) Jacksonville, and hosted numerous free youth football camps for military families.

Most recently, Lloyd and his father spent a week with veterans as part of Project Odyssey, an experience rooted in outdoor challenges and connection with the Wounded Warrior Project. This no-cost mental health program engaged warriors through a nature-based approach, focusing on resilience and managing their mental health.

Fans have an opportunity to vote to help determine the award's three finalists from each of the 32 NFL teams. To cast your vote, visit NFL.com/SaluteFanVote from now until Nov. 30. Fans can submit one vote per day.
