Jason Peters will have the opportunity to put on another uniform, as the Philadelphia Eagles announced on Thursday that they’ll let the Hall of Fame left tackle test free agency.
Eagles brass made it clear that they’ll remain in communication with the nine-time Pro Bowler as “each side continues to evaluate its options.”
Here are four takeaways from the news that Peters will hit the open market.

1. Peters can still play
Over the past three seasons, Peters has been consistent while losing a step. Over the past 3 seasons, Peters has an 82.6 grade from PFF grade (12th among OTs) while playing 2,163 regular season snaps along the way.
Peters only allowed 21 pressures in 562 pass-blocking attempts last season, placing him ninth among 57 qualifying tackles.
