A former franchise star will be back in the Arizona Cardinals’ building next week. No, it does not appear as if Patrick Peterson is returning to the defensive backfield that he dominated from 2011-20.

The Arizona Cardinals’ off-season makeover keeps chugging along. Since the start of March, they’ve extended multiple internal free agents, signed three starters on the defensive line and inked Trey McBride to a record-setting deal.
