Ever think you have what it takes to take the field with the Redskins? Well, on August 6th the team partnered with USAA as over 100 military members and families participated in Salute to Service Boot Camp at the team’s preseason training camp.
Participants competed in NFL-Combine style events, including the 40-yard sash, vertical leaps, quarterback challenges, receiver gauntlet, and cone drills at the Redskins’ training center in Richmond, Virginia.
As the Official Salute to Service Partner of the Redskins, USAA continued to build on its relationship with the team in its ninth year as the Official Military Appreciation Sponsor of the NFL.
