Cornerback Patrick Peterson will be re-signing with the Vikings, the eight-time Pro Bowl cornerback announced on his All Things Covered podcast with Bryant McFadden on Wednesday. The new contract will be a one-year deal, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Peterson, 31, joined the Vikings last season as a free agent after spending the first 10 years of his career with the Cardinals. In 13 games, he tallied 45 tackles with one interception, which he returned for a 66-yard touchdown.
The Vikings underwhelmed a bit in 2021, finishing 8–9 and missing the playoffs for the second straight season.
