OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. (AP) – LSU cornerback Patrick Peterson patterns his game after Charles Woodson.
He also keeps in touch with the Green Bay Packers’ star.
Peterson received his Jim Thorpe Award, given to the best defensive back in college football, at the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum on Monday night.
Peterson says he received a text message from Woodson on Sunday night after the Pro Bowl cornerback was injured in the first half of the Super Bowl. Woodson, who broke his collarbone during the Packers’ 31-25 victory against Pittsburgh, was letting his protege know he was going to be OK.
