Patrick Peterson had great reaction to news of Fitzgerald’s return
Patrick Peterson had a great reaction to the news that Larry Fitzgerald would be returning for another season.
The Arizona Cardinals announced on Wednesday that Fitzgerald had signed a one-year contract to play in 2019. When Peterson was told of the news from Orlando, where he is for the Pro Bowl, he was genuinely enthusiastic.
Asked Cardinals CB Patrick Peterson on Larry Fitzgerald returning for another year: “What? He’s coming back? So he’s coming back? I thought he was going to retire, man. I’m so happy to hear that!”

Why would Peterson be pumped? The Cardinals were terrible this season, but Fitzgerald remained a bright spot. He had 69 receptions for 734 yards and six touchdowns.
Having Peterson on defense and Fitzgerald on offense is a nice place for new head coach Kliff Kingsbury to start when building his team.
