In partnership with Bud Light, and with additional support from team owner Terry Pegula, the program is designed as a thank-you to the Bills Mafia for decades of unwavering loyalty.

Vikings Rookie Cut Before Season Retires to Join Military Service
The NFL is often described as the pinnacle of athletic dreams, but for one Minnesota rookie, the path to greatness has taken a turn away from the gridiron and toward a higher calling. After signing as an undrafted free agent in May, the young cornerback fought through training camp and preseason battles, hoping to carve out a roster spot on a Vikings team searching for secondary depth and identity. That player is Zemaiah Vaughn, a standout from the University of Utah who built his name as a long, competitive boundary corner with special-teams upside. Waived in late August, Vaughn stunned teammates and fans by announcing his retirement from professional football and his decision to enlist in the U.S. military, trading a Vikings jersey for a soldier’s uniform. “I lived my NFL dream in Minnesota, but being cut before the season opened another path,” Vaughn said in a statement. “This isn’t the end — it’s a higher calling. Now, I choose to serve my country with the same heart I gave the Vikings.” At 6’3” and 187 pounds, Vaughn brought elite length for a boundary role and made his mark with poise, vision, and leadership. His preseason PFF grade of 65 reflected consistency, though the roster competition proved overwhelming. For the Vikings, the move closes the chapter on a developmental project. For Vaughn, it begins a profound new journey that echoes his reputation as a “hidden gem” — a player who always found ways to rise above. Fans in Minnesota and across the college football community saluted the decision on social media, calling it “the ultimate sacrifice” and “proof that heart is bigger than the game.” Vaughn leaves the NFL, but his next mission may prove even greater.
