Former Saints backup QB Nathan Peterman re-signs with Las Vegas Raiders
Nathan Peterman is going back to the Las Vegas Raiders. The former New Orleans Saints backup landed on his feet by re-signing with one of his old teams, reuniting with offensive coordinator Luke Getsy -- who coached him on the Chicago Bears last year. Peterman was pushed to the bottom of the Saints depth chart when Spencer Rattler fell to them in April's NFL draft.
The Raiders must have wanted another arm for the rest of their preseason with Gardner Minshew and Aidan O'Connell still on top of the depth chart, though rookie quarterbacks Anthony Brown Jr. and Carter Bradley are still on the roster.
Good luck to him. Peterman only appeared in two games with the Raiders as Derek Carr's backup from 2020 to 2021, completed 3 of 5 passes for a gain of 25 yards. He's totaled 13 interceptions against just 4 touchdown passes on 160 career attempts in 15 games with three different teams. We'll have to wait and see if he's still wearing silver and black when the Saints host Las Vegas at the Caesars Superdome on Dec. 29.
