Just like last offseason, left tackle Jason Peters is eyeing a deal which will extend his career for one more season. As noted by Myles Simmons of Pro Football Talk, Peters has been “staying in shape and [is] waiting for a team to come calling.” 
The 40-year-old could join Andrew Whitworth as the lone blindside blocker to start at that age if he lands a contract. He made it clear that he saw playing into his 40s as a realistic goal when stating his intention of suiting up in 2021. It was already well-known at that time, of course, that his days with the Eagles were over. It was in Philadelphia that Peters won his lone Super Bowl title, along with each of his two All-Pro nominations and seven of his nine consecutive Pro Bowl invitations.
“[I’m] looking for an upcoming offensive line, good team — or a playoff team,” he said. “Either/or is good for me, because I can pass my torch on to some guys who are trying to get better, the younger guys, the new generation. Or if I get on a team with some vets, they already know how I rock, and we can just go into the playoffs and make a run and try to win another ring.”
Peters signed with the Bears last August, and wound up starting all 15 contests he appeared in. He allowed six sacks, so any interested teams wouldn’t be numb to the fact that his pass protection isn’t what it used to be. Still, the Arkansas alum earned a solid PFF grade of 77.5. That could generate a late-offseason market for his services, something Peters is prepared for.
“Whenever the opportunity comes, I’m going to give it one more run at it and try to get me another ring, or pass on some knowledge to these young kids, up and coming” he said, adding “I don’t have a time frame on when I’m going to get signed.”
If any team were to suffer a significant injury during training camp or the preseason, Peters could once again find himself signing a one-year deal. His market will be worth watching in the coming weeks to see if anything materializes along the same lines as 2021. If not, he will surrender his title as the league’s highest-earning active UDFA.
He’ll start every game, then hobble to the blue sideline tent on the first offensive drive every game.
The Seahawks were dead last in time of possession so that would be a good landing spot for a 40 yr old OL whose body can’t withstand much more punishment.
