Jason Peters could be the starter at RT for Cowboys vs. Eagles in Christmas Eve showdown

Cowboys right tackle Terence Steele tore his ACL and MCL, meaning Jason Peters will be the likely starter at right tackle when the Eagles visit AT&T Stadium on Christmas Eve

The NFL loves a great storyline and the Week 16 matchup on Christmas Eve between Dallas and Philadelphia just got a little more intriguing.

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler is reporting that Cowboys starting right tackle Terrence Steele will miss the remainder of the season after tearing his ACL and MCL in the win over the Texans.

With Steele out, former Eagles star left tackle Jason Peters was inserted at right tackle on the final drive and played a critical role in Dallas hanging on for the win.

The Cowboys will now have to decide whether it’s the ineffective Jason Ball or the future Hall of farmer Peters, who signed with Dallas in hopes of another Super Bowl ring.

We’ll keep you updated as things develop.

Terence Steele says Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes has inspired Texas Tech football

Mahomes “really put Texas Tech on the map” according to Steele.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has garnered several different honors early in his NFL career. The latest honor comes from a former teammate from his alma mater Texas Tech University that has him seen in possibly a brighter light than he’s realized over the past three seasons.

Terence Steele is one of the many offensive linemen at the 2020 NFL Combine looking to impress scouts ahead of April’s NFL Draft. Steele played four seasons with the Texas Tech Red Raiders, one of which was alongside Mahomes in 2017. Steele spoke with Chiefs Wire contributor Ed Easton Jr. regarding Mahomes’ professional success impacting the University.

“We are all extremely proud of what Patrick Mahomes has done this past season and the season before that,” Steele told Chiefs Wire. “He’s really put Texas Tech on the map. I know just looking back, he’s given a lot of kids at Texas Tech hope that we can make an impact in the NFL, kind of like he has even kids from Texas. I’m blessed to have seen his work ethic and kind of get to know him a little bit, even got to block for him for a season, so it’s been pretty cool.”

Steele is a versatile offensive lineman open to playing multiple positions in the NFL. The experience with Mahomes could also serve as an inspiration fo teams to take a more in-depth look at his talents as draft night quickly approaches.
