He posted a photo of the approval letter to his Instagram account and it can be seen below.

He appeared in three games as a freshman, making one start and recording eight total tackles, before a leg injury caused his season to be cut short.

A five-star recruit out of Paramus (N.J.) Catholic, Peppers was ranked as the nation's No. 3 overall prospect and No. 1 athlete in the 2014 recruiting cycle, according to the 247Sports Composite.
