Christopher Gates has been the lead writer at The Daily Norseman since the site launched in July of 2006, covering the Minnesota Vikings day in and day out.
A couple of months ago, Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones was nominated as the team’s representative for this year’s USAA Salute to Service Award. Now, he has an opportunity to bring the award home to Minnesota.
On Thursday, Jones was named one of the three finalists for the Salute to Service Award, along with San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle and Los Angeles Chargers defensive end Morgan Fox.
