The Minnesota Vikings inked cornerback Patrick Peterson to a one-year deal during the first week of free agency, and that ushered in longstanding rumors regarding Larry Fitzgerald. Meaning – would Fitzgerald be interested in capping his career with the Vikings in tandem with Peterson’s accompaniment?
Peterson and Fitzgerald played together in Arizona for 10 full seasons.
The Peterson news was a bombshell in its own regard while the Fitzgerald add-on hypothesis remains a pipe dream. The 37-year-old Fitzgerald grew up in the Twin Cities and played high school football at the Academy of Holy Angels in Minneapolis.
