Jason Peters to Play LT for Eagles After Andre Dillard's Season-Ending Injury

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson confirmed Jason Peters will move back to left tackle for the 2020 NFL season.

"Jason Peters came into my office this morning and he has decided to slide over to left tackle," Pederson told reporters. "This is the unselfishness [of Peters]. This is who he is. He sacrifices not only his body but for the football team. ... I'm thrilled to death."

Peters has played at left tackle for nearly the entirety of his career but was slated to line up on the inside before Andre Dillard suffered a season-ending biceps injury.
