Cardinals cornerback Patrick Peterson received another accolade for his performance in 2013, being named to the Associated Press All-Pro team.



Peterson was the only Cardinals player to make the first team. He also was chosen for his third consecutive Pro Bowl.



Inside linebacker Karlos Dansby, who didn’t make the Pro Bowl, made the second team All-Pro.

The All-Pro team, selected by 50 media members, is more exclusive because fewer players make it. Peterson and Seattle’s Richard Sherman are the two cornerbacks on the team.

Luke Kuechly of the Panthers and NaVorro Bowman of the 49ers were the first-team inside linebackers. Dansby and the Bengals’ Vontaze Burfict, an Arizona State product, are on the second team.
