On Wednesday the NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported that the Chicago Bears have signed free agent quarterback Nathan Peterman who spent the last two years with the Las Vegas Raiders.
The 28-year old Peterman was originally a fifth-round pick of the Buffalo Bills in 2017, and during his career he has appeared in 10 games, with 4 starts, while completing 52.6% of his passes for 573 yards, 3 touchdowns, 12 interceptions, and a passer rating of 34.0. He also has rushed 20 times for 84 yards with a TD.
Peterman joins a quarterback room with QB1 Justin Fields, Trevor Siemian, and Ryan Willis, Based on his previous NFL pedigree, I would assume Peterman is a camp arm that will be competing with Willis for a practice squad role or a third-string gig.
