The NFL and the Steelers offensive tackle honored the families of fallen service men and women at the 2018 Pro Bowl.

There are certain situations when you can’t even fathom what another person is going through, and for those families who have lost a loved one while serving in our armed forces, this would be one of those moments.

In an effort to bridge the gap between the NFL and the military, the league welcomed several families who have lost loved ones thanks to the organization Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS). TAPS is one of the NFL’s Salute to Service charitable partners, and league officials said the league is proud to work with the organization and honored to provide memorable experiences to the families of fallen troops.
