Patrick Peterson was lamenting the missed opportunity he’ll have Sunday when the Giants come to town but top receiver Odell Beckham – who is injured – will not play.
The Cardinals’ Pro Bowl cornerback relishes playing against the best wideouts, and that includes practice – and going up against Larry Fitzgerald.
On Thursday, Peterson recounted the first time he faced Fitz, at training camp in 2011 when Peterson was still wearing uniform No. 31 and he had just signed his contract.
“My first rep was with Fitz and he one-hand Mossed me in the back of the end zone,” Peterson said, noting
that Fitzgerald got a picture of the play and signed it for Peterson, a photo that hangs in Peterson’s house.
