Peters brings veteran leadership to this youthful locker room. In his 11-year career, last five with the Cardinals, Peters has made a name for himself as vocal character. He’s a former Walter Payton Man of the Year award winner as well. Those attributes are important for the development of this team, especially if Larry Fitzgerald opts to retire.

He’s coming off a knee injury that limited him to nine games with Arizona last season.
