In 2011, the Arizona Cardinals selected a premier cornerback prospect out of Louisiana State University. Patrick Peterson, the fifth overall selection in that draft, is one of the best players in franchise history and will one day have his name etched into the stadium’s walls.
In 2022, the Cards may once again be shooting for the stars with another top LSU cornerback prospect. Derek Stingley, one of the highest-graded prospects in this year’s draft, recently worked out for the Cardinals’ defensive backs coaches at his pro day.
Sitting with the 23rd overall pick, it seems nearly impossible the team has any shot to land the star defensive back at their current position. However, being one of the nine teams to hold a workout with him certainly indicates a high level of interest.
