Jason Peters is joining the Bears

For the first time since 2008, Jason Peters will be lining up for a team that isn’t the Philadelphia Eagles. The 39-year-old free agent offensive tackle is signing with the Chicago Bears, according to his agent.

Peters previously expressed interest in playing football in 2021 despite his age and struggles to stay healthy. He knew he likely wouldn’t be back with the Eagles, though. Everyone else had the same expectation.
