Khalil Tate is ‘mainly trying to focus on his arm,’ teammate says

Cedric Peterson has noticed what everyone else has noticed about Khalil Tate this season.

“I feel like this year he’s mainly trying to focus on his arm,” the Arizona wide receiver said. “We all know what he can do with the ball in his hands as far as running-wise, but now he’s focusing on another key in his game, which is the passing game.”

Tate, one of the top dual-threat quarterbacks in the country last season, has mysteriously transformed into a pocket-passer this year, throwing roughly four passes for every rush. Last season, that ratio was nearly even.
