Corey Peters injury scare ends with minor diagnosis

After missing an entire season with an Achilles tear, Corey Peters finds out his recent injury is just plantar fasciitis.

Former Kentucky Wildcats defensive lineman Corey Peters had a major injury scare on Tuesday as he limped off of the field with an apparent injury to his left foot. Coming off of missing the entire 2015-2016 NFL season with a torn Achilles, Peters and the Arizona Cardinals staff feared the worst.

Corey Peters only has plantar fasciitis, should be OK. No knee surgery needed for Alani Fua.
