When will it happen? It depends.
“I know I can’t go there before Fitzy (Larry Fitzgerald),” said Peterson. “I said (bidwill) that. I don’t want to go before Fitzy. So, whenever it happens, it will be after him.”
Although this has not been said, the only reason Fitzgerald is not already in the Ring of Honor is because of Fitzgerald. When Fitzgerald is ultimately inducted into the renowned temple, it was probably at this moment that he would like to be honored, put on the bank of honor and his jersey n ° 11 retired.
Then, after that, that’s when we can anticipate Peterson Honoré.
