Farragut Admirals’ safety Tanner Corum is awarded 5 Star Preps’ Player of the Week by Jesse Smithey on Wednesday, August 22, 2018 at Farragut High School.
Farragut safety Tanner Corum received the first 5Star Preps Player of the Week presented by Smithbilt Homes.
Corum intercepted three passes during Farragut’s 34-0 Week 1 win over Bradley Central.
The senior, who’s also a receiver for the Admirals, has committed to Southern Illinois.
He received 850 votes, which were good for 41.8 percent of the votes. It didn’t hurt that his cousin, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, gave him a shoutout on Twitter.
