The 30-year-old cornerback has snagged 28 interceptions in his 10-year career. He was drafted by the Arizona Cardinals fifth overall in 2011.

He was named first-team All-Pro in 2011, 2013 and 2015 and made eight straight Pro Bowls from 2011-2018.

Peterson was also a prolific punt returner for the Cardinals, scoring four touchdowns his rookie year, though his role in that capacity has been greatly diminished in recent years.
