About Tanner »

Tanner Flowers is a freelance journalist who studied at the University of Missouri.

Born and raised in the southeastern U.S., I closely watch college football, especially SEC football, the NFL, baseball and hockey.

Thanks for the edits, Tanner. That's quite interesting about Peterson coming from Jacksonville instead of Denver...that means my source (Beckett Pro Football 2009 Preview) is incorrect! Thanks for the catch!
