The veteran has played for the Buffalo Bills, Chicago Bears, Dallas Cowboys, and the Seahawks. But he spent the majority of his career with the Eagles, from 2009 to 2020, helping them win the Super Bowl in 2018.
Peters joined the Eagles ahead of the 2009 season. The Philly legend’s 11-season chapter with the Eagles ended when he signed a one-year deal with the Bears in 2021.
In addition to being a Super Bowl champion and a nine-time Pro Bowler, Peters has earned two first-team and four-time second-team All-Pro honors.
Now, with the Seahawks down to their third-string right tackle Stone Forsythe, the veteran returns to Seattle after appearing in eight games with the team last season, starting two.
