Patrick Peterson Trolls Kyler Murray During Win vs. Cardinals
The whole schtick around Arizona Cardinals QB Kyler Murray and his love for video games has now been upped to NFL opponents mocking him on the field.
During Arizona's 34-26 loss to the Minnesota Vikings, Murray was intercepted late in the third quarter, which prompted the typical end zone party by defensive players and anybody else who cares to join.
After a few dolphin jumps and poses for the camera, Patrick Peterson jumped to the front and appeared to be holding a controller.

Murray, a known gamer and part of the FaZe gaming team, has been the subject of numerous jokes and stabs when the newest Call of Duty dropped.
I asked Patrick Peterson what game he was pretending to play with his video-game celebration: “I think it’s called Call of Duty? I’m not much of a gamer. Heard it just came out.”

Patrick Peterson also went into a yoga pose during that celebration. “I did?” What’s the message to Kyler Murray? Peterson: “Just keep getting better …” (big smile) “And block out the noise.”

Pelissero also dropped another interesting wrinkle: Somebody in the Cardinals' organization was printing emails from fans saying he couldn't tackle and how he was washed up were found at his locker.
Patrick Peterson made clear he’s not happy with the #Cardinals organization either. Says while he was still in Arizona, someone was printing out emails from a fan about how he couldn’t tackle and was washed up and would leave the letters on the chair at his locker.

Needless to say, for a few reasons, Peterson was looking forward to this matchup.
