Cardinals Pro Bowl CB Patrick Peterson was diagnosed with a concussion in the second quarter of yesterday’s game and missed the rest of the contest. Peterson was hurt when teammate Deone Bucannon hit Eagles wide receiver Jeremy Maclin and drove him into Peterson with enough force that both Maclin and Peterson had to go to the locker room for evaluation.
Maclin would return, but Peterson wouldn’t and will now have to gain clearance by going through the concussion protocol. It’s too early to know whether he has a chance to do so in time to play against the Cowboys next week.
Peterson made this tweet later that night:
Thanks for all the prayers from #p2nation and @AZCardinals fans. I will be O.K. #6-1 moving on to Dallas.

Peterson received a lucrative contract extension from the Cardinals after making the Pro Bowl in each of his first three seasons and two First-Team All-Pro selections
