    Patrick Peterson: Released by Steelers

    Pittsburgh is set to release Patrick Peterson, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.Peterson played adequately for the Steelers last season, handling 1,045 defensive snaps across 17 regular-season games, but at 34 years old, the eight-time Pro Bowler isn't quite the player he once was. His release leaves Pittsburgh with $2.9 million in dead cap, but clears up almost $7 million in cap space for the team.

    Steelers' Patrick Peterson: Picks off pass in Week 16 win

    Patrick Peterson recorded two tackles (one solo) and an interception in Saturday's 34-11 win over Cincinnati.The Pittsburgh Steelers are dealing with a depleted secondary, so the team tabbed Peterson to slide from his usual cornerback role to starting safety. The veteran handled his second career game at the position well, playing 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps and picking off a Jake Browning pass to squelch the Bengals' first drive of the contest. Minkah Fitzpatrick (knee) is reportedly looking at a multi-week absence, and Damontae Kazee (suspension) is out for the remainder of the regular season, so Peterson may be asked to start at safety again next Sunday versus Seattle.

    Steelers' Patrick Peterson: Likely to see time at safety

    Patrick Peterson is likely to see more time at safety in Week 16 against the Bengals, Teresa Varley of the Pittsburgh Steelers' official site reports.The Steelers are set to be without Damontae Kazee (suspension), Minkah Fitzpatrick (knee) and Trenton Thompson (neck) for Saturday's matchup, leaving them very shorthanded at both safety spots. Peterson has primarily played at outside corner opposite Joey Porter, but he could shift to safety in the short term. In addition to increasing his own opportunity to make tackles, the shift in role will simultaneously boost the playing time of Levi Wallace at corner.

    Vikings' Patrick Peterson: Delivers bounce-back 2022 season

    Patrick Peterson compiled a career-high 66 tackles (56 solo) and 15 pass breakups -- including five interceptions -- while playing all 17 regular-season games for the Minnesota Vikings in 2022.Thanks to not missing any game action while playing nearly every snap on defense, Peterson surpassed his previous career high for tackles, which he set during his rookie campaign in 2011. The 32-year-old cornerback also logged double-digit pass breakups for the first time since 2013, and he actually accumulated his second-most passes defended plus interceptions of any season in his career. Peterson re-signed with Minnesota on a one-year, $4 million contract last season, and with the team already a projected $24.5 million over the cap heading into the 2023 season, it's possible that the veteran defender may have priced himself out of the Vikings' plans.
