Pederson said they will start Nate Herbig at right guard in place of Peters, per Jeff McLane

Peters, 38, originally signed on with the Bills as an undrafted free agent out of Arkansas back in 2004. He spent five years in Buffalo before being traded to the Eagles in 2009.

Peters signed a four-year, $53 million extension in Philadelphia after the trade. Last year, Peters signed another one-year extension worth $6 million for the 2019 season. 

Philadelphia brought Peters back on a one-year, $3 million contract this past June. The Eagles restructured his contract a few months ago to make it worth up to $8 million and includes $4 million guaranteed.

In 2020, Peters appeared in eight games, making eight starts for them
