Nicholas' NFL obsession was born out of a trip to his local shopping mall in the English city of Leeds in 2005 that resulted in him purchasing a Julian Peterson jersey. While Peterson was not long for the San Francisco 49ers' roster, Nicholas' love of the Niners and the game of football has only grown since. From spending the spring extensively studying draft prospects, to staying up until 5 a.m. to take in primetime games, there truly is no offseason for Nicholas, whose time writing about the NFL has seen him cover international NFL games and Super Bowl LVI on location. Contrary to popular opinion, Nicholas does sleep, but this is a man who hasn't met a deep dive he isn't prepared to write.
