Patrick Peterson Says Former Cardinals Teammate Would Forget the Down

Arizona Cardinals cornerback Patrick Peterson said Monday that a former teammate used to forget what down it was.

Appearing on The Rich Eisen Show (h/t Jess Root of Cards Wire), Peterson said, "I have played with a guy that lost track of downs but not the score."

Peterson's answer was in response to a question about whether any teammates ever forgot the score similar to what Cleveland Cavaliers guard JR Smith did in Game 1 of the NBA Finals against the Golden State Warriors.

The All-Pro defensive back also described how he handled the situation differently than LeBron James, who made no effort to hide his fury after Smith's massive miscue.
