Early years

Farmer was regarded as a five-star recruit by Rivals.com, and was listed as the No. 1 wide receiver prospect in the class of 2011. He has been featured as Sports Illustrated′s "High School Player of the Week" in October 2010, and participated in the 2010 U.S. Army All-American Bowl.

At Junípero Serra High School, Farmer was a teammate of Colorado wideout and future Seahawks teammate Paul Richardson and San Jose Spartan cornerback Bene Benwikere as well as former USC Trojan wideouts Robert Woods and Marqise Lee.

Farmer is son of former NFL player George Farmer, who played for both the Los Angeles Rams and Miami Dolphins in the 1980s.

Also an excellent sprinter, Farmer finished second in the 100 meters to Remontay McClain—in a photo finish (both at 10.40 sec)—at the 2010 CIF track meet.

College career

Farmer played at USC as a freshman in the 2011 season, appearing in 4 games mostly as a running back, while catching 4 passes for 42 yards and returning 3 kickoffs for a total of 59 yards.

The next year he suffered a serious bite from a brown recluse spider, before the start of the summer workouts. He was used even more sparingly in his sophomore season, recording only 1 reception for 7 yards.

Farmer tore his ACL and MCL in a preseason practice, causing him to miss the entire season. Despite only grabbing 30 catches for 363 yards with four touchdowns in an injury-plagued USC Trojan career, Farmer decided to enter the 2015 NFL Draft after his junior year.

Professional career

Dallas Cowboys

Farmer was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Dallas Cowboys on May 5, 2015. With several suitors, the Cowboys gave him a $15,000 signing bonus and a guaranteed cash payment of $55,000 dollars for the season, to outbid other National Football League teams. He was waived on August 16 to make room for wide receiver David Porter.

Seattle Seahawks

On August 22, 2015, Farmer signed with the Seattle Seahawks as a free agent, who converted him to a cornerback. He was subsequently released on August 31. After being released at the conclusion of the preseason the Seattle Seahawks resigned Farmer to their practice squad on September 22, 2015.
