Flowers Speaks Out Against Wearing Fur

Chargers cornerback joins up with PETA for new ad campaign.

Chargers cornerback Brandon Flowers love animals. He wants everyone to know in his new anti-fur campaign with People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

"I wanted to get involved with (PETA) because first off, I'm an animal lover," Flowers said. “"I have a dog. And I couldn't imagine someone just taking my dog's fur or skinning my dog alive or killing him just to be selfish. And get his fur just for an accessory.”

He’s part of the organization’s new ad campaign, talking about his personal experiences, including his dog, named Pup.

“I know, that’s an original name,” he said, laughing. “I play with him all day. He's just so happy to see you every time you come in the house."

He shows off his tattoo that says “Ink, Not Mink.”

Flowers joins a growing list of NFL players to align with PETA, including Le’Veon Bell, Terrell Suggs, Stevie Johnson and Maurice Jones-Drew.
