The Arizona Cardinals veteran cornerback is hitting the open market
We know Jon Gruden is interested in adding a veteran cornerback because he already told free agent-to-be Richard Sherman that he’s looking.
There is another veteran who Gruden can now consider — Arizona Cardinals’ cornerback Patrick Peterson. FanSided reported that Peterson and the Cardinals are going to part ways and he will be a free agent next month.
Peterson will be 31 in July (Sherman will be 33 in March) and he would fit the “alpha” role Gruden is looking for. He might be pricey and the Raiders are going to have to be prudent in free agency this year. But, there’s no doubt, Peterson is the type of player Gruden would likely want to add.
