Patrick Peterson makes statement on suspension Patrick Breen, Arizona Republic
Patrick Peterson did the right thing Thursday night by apologizing for the news bomb that exploded earlier in the day that he will be suspended for six games to start the 2019 season for violating the NFL’s policy on performance-enhancing drugs.
Although he could have been a little more contrite, he handled it about as well as possible considering the embarrassment of having to do it while attending his own charity fundraiser moments before the start of a glitzy reception and silent auction in Scottsdale.
The question now is, can the Cardinals count on their All-Pro cornerback to do the right thing moving forward or is it worth exploring a potential trade for the 29-year-old, eight-time Pro Bowler?
