The veteran offensive lineman, 42-year-old Jason Peters, has officially made his return to the Seattle Seahawks’ practice squad. This move comes at a time when the Seahawks are dealing with concerns about their depth at the right tackle position.
Peters previously appeared in eight games with two starts for Seattle in 2023. His experience and knowledge of the game could prove to be invaluable for the team, especially given the current health situation at the right tackle position.
During the recent loss, Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith faced pressure on 26 of the 62 dropbacks, equating to 41.9% of his dropbacks. This statistic highlights the importance of having a reliable offensive line to protect the quarterback and provide him with enough time to make plays.
For fans who may be questioning the team’s depth at right tackle, the addition of Peters to the practice squad may offer some insight into the Seahawks’ plans for the position. It appears that despite having multiple options at right tackle, including players like McClendon Curtis and Michael Jerrell, the team may not have full confidence in those individuals.
Overall, Peters’ return to the Seahawks’ practice squad adds a veteran presence to the team and could potentially help shore up any concerns about the depth at the right tackle position. As the Seahawks continue their season, having a player like Peters on the roster could prove to be a valuable asset in their quest for success on the field.
In the words of coach Pete Carroll, “We’re excited to have Jason back with us. His experience and leadership will be instrumental in helping our team navigate any challenges we may face moving forward.”
