Peters' Return Important for Eagles' O-Line
According to PhillyVoice's Jimmy Kempski, Matt Tobin replaced Peters at left tackle and Dennis Kelly came off the bench to take Tobin's place at right guard after Peters was injured.
The Eagles can ill afford an injury along the offensive line. The team lacks depth across the board, and Peters has long been the glue that's held the front five together.
The seven-time Pro Bowler has been tasked with protecting quarterback Sam Bradford's blind side, and he didn't allow a single sack this season until the first quarter of Week 7. With Bradford out, Peters will be responsible for keeping Mark Sanchez upright.
