Manchester United centre back Chris Smalling stars in PETA's latest campaign, Be Their Biggest Defender.

Try Vegan!, encouraging people to 'embrace vegan eating'. Smalling discusses the benefits of following a vegan diet in the campaign, and commented 'I realised how brutal [animal agriculture] is to animals, how unnecessary it is to us, and how damaging it is to the environment', adding 'I had a lot of tendinitis in my knee, and then once I went fully vegan, all those symptoms just dropped away'.
