According to Jordan Schultz, veteran OL Andrus Peat has announced his retirement from the NFL after 11 years in the league.
Peat, 32, is a former first-round pick of the Saints back in 2015. He was in the final year of his four-year, $11.393 million contract and stood to make a base salary of $1.988 million for the 2018 season when the Saints picked up his fifth-year option for 2019.
After playing out his option and becoming an unrestricted free agent, Peat signed back with the Saints on a five-year, $57.5 million deal in 2020.
He was due base salaries of $11.825 million in 2023 and 2024 when he reworked his deal, taking a pay cut and chopping off the 2024 season on his contract. Peat then signed a one-year deal with the Raiders for the 2024 season and landed another one-year deal with the Steelers in August of last year.
In 2025, Peat appeared in six games for the Steelers and started three times at guard.
