Patrick Peterson Signing Tabbed As ‘Questionable’ Scheme Fit By Pro Football Focus

After losing veteran cornerback Cameron Sutton in the early stages of the legal tampering period to the Detroit Lions on a three-year, $33 million deal, the Pittsburgh Steelers pivoted quickly to sign veteran cornerback Patrick Peterson on the open market to a two-year, $14 million deal, attempting to shore up the position group with arguably the biggest area of need entering the offseason, even before losing Sutton.

Peterson, 33, still has some good football left in him and is coming off of a good 2022 season in which he recorded five interceptions and played more than 1,100 snaps.
