The Arizona Cardinals’ star cornerback left them little choice. Attempting to strong-arm a franchise into trading you is not a great way to punch your ticket out of town. Patrick Peterson and his agent are most likely aware of that by now.
The Cards’ seven-time Pro Bowler has made it abundantly clear that he no longer wants to be with the organization. Michael Bidwill, however, is smart enough to know that you don’t send talented contributors like Peterson away. In fact, Arizona’s team President met with the 28-year old this past Tuesday to let him know personally that his request was not going to be granted.
