Rotowire
Peters tested positive for COVID-19 and was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Sunday.
Peters has served as a rotational lineman along the Cardinals' defensive front, tallying a total of six tackles across five games. He could also be in danger of missing the team's Week 7 contest against the Texans, depending on how quickly he can pass through the league's health protocols. Jonathan Ledbetter was promoted from the practice squad to fill in for Peters.

Rotowire
The Cardinals placed Peters (kneecap) on injured reserve Thursday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
Coach Kliff Kingsbury told reporters Wednesday that Peters was ruled out of the remainder of the season due to a torn patellar tendon, so this news isn't surprising. The veteran is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, so he'll look to get healthy and earn a new contract.

Rotowire
Peters won't return to Sunday's game against the Bills after being carted off with a knee injury.
This is a potentially serious injury, and it's a big loss for the Cardinals' defensive front. Trevon Coley likely will fill the void at nose tackle moving forward. The Cardinals play Thursday against the Seahawks, so Peters will aim for a quick recovery for a crucial divisional matchup.

Cardinals' Corey Peters: Ready for action Sunday
Rotowire
Peters (knee) was a full participant in Friday's practice and will play Sunday against the Redskins, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Rotowire
Peters had 22 tackles (18 solo) and one sack in 12 games with the Cardinals in 2017.

Cardinals' Corey Peters: Returns for Week 15
Rotowire
Peters (ankle) is officially active for Sunday's matchup with the Redskins.
Peters was listed as questionable and had missed the previous four games, but he'll make a late-season return. The 29-year-old should reclaim his starting role at nose tackle for the Cardinals.
The Cardinals signed Peters (ankle) to a three-year, $12 million contract extension Friday, Mike Jones of USA Today reports.
Though his contributions don't often show up on the stat sheet, Peters has been a valuable run stuffer for the Cardinals this season and will be rewarded for his efforts. The new deal keeps him under contract through the 2020 season, though the Cardinals will have to get by without him Sunday against the Rams, as he's been ruled out for a third straight game with a sprained ankle.
Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians said Wednesday that Peters is dealing with a high-ankle sprain, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Arians said Peters "could [need] a little bit of time," suggesting that it's unlikely the nose tackle will play Sunday against the Texans. Third-year player Rodney Gunter would be the next man up if Peters is ruled out.

Cardinals' Corey Peters: Leaves practice early Tuesday
Rotowire
Peters (undisclosed) went to the locker room early during Tuesday's practice, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Peters sustained a season-ending left Achilles tear last year in training camp, and the 2016 version doesn't appear to be treating him well either. On a positive note, he was able to walk off the field under his own power, albeit with a limp. Expect head coach Bruce Arians to clarify the injury, if any, once the requisite tests are performed.
