Sure, if your league does individual defensive players. If so do special team TD's count for them? Lots of things to consider

Even when fantasy teams include defensive backs (perhaps even awarding points for passes defended?), the very best CBs are still awful choices because of how infrequently they see action (QBs simply don't throw their way). P2 doesn't get many "stats", but he's hoping that will change this year.
In the article Steve Wilks says about his shutdown (shutout?) corner situation “To be honest, I hope it continues to happen. He’s frustrated, but that’s the price of being great.” The article also talks about how they are planning to use him differently this year. "Peterson hasn’t registered a sack since 2014, but in Wilks’ new 4-3 defense, he could find himself rushing the quarterback on a corner blitz from time to time."
“Just eager to get back on the stat sheet,” Peterson said.
So, yeah the title of this thread was a joke, or at least hyperbole - but hey, who knows? P2 is owned in 9% of Yahoo fantasy leagues, so someone, somewhere is hoping he records something in fantasy this year.
