Fittipaldo: Steelers May Revisit Patrick Peterson As Slot Option After Draft

The Pittsburgh Steelers seem to have so many needs that some of them fall off the radar. Perhaps not for everyone, but for many, they no longer talk about the cornerback position, for example. The Steelers acquired a starter in Donte Jackson via trade, but they still need more help for Joey Porter Jr.

Last year, they brough in veteran Patrick Peterson to serve as a full-time starter, but released him earlier this year. Yet from the horse’s mouth, Peterson said the Steelers are still interested in doing business with him. Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette wouldn’t find that in the least surprising, aside from perhaps the timing.
