The gem of Jeremy Pruitt’s first Tennessee recruiting class in 2018, Peterson got off to a slow start when he arrived on campus later than his fellow signees due to academic issues. After redshirting in 2018, Peterson appeared in every game in 2019 in a limited role, finishing with 11 total tackles. He notched a career-high five tackles against Alabama.
