Patrick Peterson Fantasy

The Pittsburgh Steelers are giving former Minnesota Vikings cornerback Patrick Peterson a two-year deal on Monday, according to a source. Peterson wants to play two more seasons, so he's expected to finish his career in Pittsburgh. The signing helps make up for the loss of Cameron Sutton in free agency after he landed with the Detroit Lions on Monday. Peterson isn't an elite shutdown cornerback heading into his age-33 campaign. He made the Pro Bowl in his first eight NFL seasons, but Father Time has taken a toll on him in recent years. Peterson had a bounce-back campaign in 2022 with Minnesota, recording a career-high 66 tackles (56 solo), five interceptions and 15 passes defensed in 17 regular season starts.

The Minnesota Vikings signed free-agent defensive back Patrick Peterson to a one-year, $4 million base value deal on Wednesday. The contract includes $3.5 million guaranteed. He racked up 45 tackles, five pass defenses, an interception and a touchdown over 13 games for the Vikings in 2021. The 31-year-old missed four games last season due to a hamstring injury but played 98 percent of the snaps when he was active. Peterson brings some stability to Minnesota's secondary and will start opposite Cameron Dantzler.

The Minnesota Vikings could be interested in bringing back defensive back Patrick Peterson for the 2022 season. The eight-time Pro Bowl corner has been in talks with the organization after playing last season in Minnesota. Although, Peterson set five career-lows during his time with the Vikings in 2021. Despite that, Peterson only allowed two touchdowns and finished with a 78.7 passer rating in coverage. The Vikings could still use another option opposite Cameron Dantzler. The 31-year-old could be a possible fit for Minnesota.
