It sounds like Patrick Peterson no longer wants out of Arizona. With less than a week to go until the trade deadline, Peterson says he is committed to helping the Cardinals win. 
“I’ve been incredibly frustrated with how the season has gone,” Peterson wrote in a statement. “But my energy is 100% focused on being part of the solution and helping us turn this around. I’ve never shied away from a challenge before and I’m not starting now. I have always given my all to the Cardinals organization, my teammates, and fans. That is what I intend to do for the years to come. I am an Arizona Cardinal, and my focus is on this week’s game.”
P2 has long been regarded as one of the league’s very best cornerbacks, but his talent has been wasted on a 1-6 Cardinals team with serious problems on both sides of the ball. Peterson ranks as Pro Football Focus’ No. 4 corner this season, but the Cardinals have allowed more than 26 points per game, including 45 points to the Broncos’ suspect offense last Thursday.
Peterson asked the Cardinals for a trade on Monday and the Saints and Eagles were said to have interest in him. The Saints, who probably didn’t have enough draft capital to land the All-Pro, acquired Eli Apple from the Giants on Tuesday. Meanwhile, the defending champs already have a tricky cap situation, so it would have been hard trade to pull off.
Peterson, 28, is in the midst of a five-year, $70MM extension. The Cardinals have him signed through his age-30 season in 2020, with cap numbers of $14.956MM, $11.884MM, and $13.184MM in each season.
Steelers please??????
Steelers are just as bad as the Cardinals.
Lol what? The only part of the Steelers that hasn’t been good this year is the secondary and the coaching. The Steelers are WAY better than the cardinals.
it’s about to go down
Giving up 45 points to the Broncos was partially because of the two pick sixes, so that’s not really on the defense
So now we have to guess what caliber of gun was held to Peterson’s head while he pledged unwavering loyalty to a team he wanted to drop like a bad habit just 2 days ago.
