Patrick Peterson shows off 'penalty kick' celebration for key INT
Patrick Peterson appears to still have futbol fever, even though the World Cup has come to a close.
Peterson made an important interception in the 4th quarter of Saturday’s Minnesota-New York game. The former LSU standout celebrated the pick by gathering his Vikings squad for a “penalty kick” in the end zone.

As it worked out, Peterson’s Vikings would actually win the game on a kick. It was tied 24-24 when Greg Joseph hit a 61-yard field goal, a team record, for the walk-off win as time expired.
