Bears to sign veteran OT Jason Peters amid O-line troubleJason Lieseron August 14, 2021 at 8:22 pm

The Bears are rushing to help their ailing offensive line and will turn to 17-year veteran tackle Jason Peters. Peters’ agency, Elite Loyalty Sports, tweeted Saturday that he agreed to terms.

The Bears faced the Dolphins in a preseason game without three presumptive starters: left tackle Teven Jenkins, right tackle Germain Ifedi and right guard James Daniels. Jenkins, the team’s second-round pick, has missed all of training camp with a back injury. His last Pro Bowl season was 2016.

Peters was a fixture on the Eagles’ 2017 championship team, which featured current Bear Nick Foles at quarterback.

Peters made it into the league with the Bills in 2004 as an undrafted free agent out of Arkansas.

Elijah Wilkinson is the Bears’ starting left tackle for now, but most of his experience has been on the right side.

Peters is a nine-time Pro Bowler, but is 39 years old. He started eight games for the Eagles as he battled injuries last season.
