The story of long snapper Nate Boyer, who is trying to make the NFL as a 34-year old rookie, is now well-known.  Today, Boyer was honored to have been selected to write the Monday Morning Quarterback column for vacationing Peter King for The MMQB website.

In his piece, titled “The American Dream“, Boyer writes an inspirational account about how he achieved his dreams of snapping in college and the NFL following his Army career.  Although many stories have been written about Boyer’s journey, this may be the best because it is in his own words.
