GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Patrick Peterson is catching passes, throwing some and running with the ball during training camp.
No doubt about it, new Arizona Cardinals coach Bruce Arians has plans for the dynamic player on offense.
In his first two NFL seasons, Peterson made the Pro Bowl as a punt returner, then as a cornerback. He remains a shutdown cornerback, first and foremost. And he still plans to return punts.

You know, the Steelers might have won a couple more Super Bowls if Arians had been this open minded about his offense in Pittsburgh, and I don't mean just this Peterson thing, I mean what he's doing in Arizona and what he did in Indy. Jesus, man. He really held the Steelers down.

Why? Don't risk Peterson...
 
I think it's more of an option they'd use if there offense becomes stagnant (which is definitely possible with Arizona).
