Nathan Peterman

The New Orleans Saints are bringing in QB Nathan Peterman to compete for their backup quarterback spot.

Fantasy Impact

With Derek Carr as their starter, the Saints are signing further depth behind him after he dealt with several injuries in 2023. Jameis Winston was New Orleans' QB2 last year, but he has moved on to the Cleveland Browns. Last season's draft pick Jake Haener will compete for the QB2 gig alongside Peterman, who has reinvented himself after a rough start to his career.

Nathan Peterman is signing with Chicago's active roster.

Fantasy Impact

Peterman will be on Chicago's active roster for their Week 6 matchup against the Vikings. He will play a depth role for this week, but it's unclear if the Bears plan to keep him in that role long-term, as he's bounced around a lot for them over the course of the season so far.

The Bears resigned Nathan Peterman to their practice squad.

Fantasy Impact

Peterman re-signs with Chicago after he was released by them last week. He will be ready to be called up to the active roster if needed.

The Chicago Bears are releasing QB Nathan Peterman ahead of their Thursday night matchup, leaving them with two signal callers on their active roster.

Fantasy Impact

Reports came out recently that QB Tyson Bagent had won the QB2 job, which was also the belief post-preseason. Peterman has been released three times by the Bears in the last month and a half, meaning he's been the one to get cut when the team needs to do roster gymnastics — this time so the Bears can activate OL Teven Jenkins. It's possible he will re-sign later or sign with the practice squad soon.

The Bears have re-signed QB Nathan Peterman.

Fantasy Impact

Peterman was released by the team yesterday, but has now re-signed with the team. The move is odd since he was not moved to the practice squad. The Bears now have Peterman and rookie Tyson Bagnet as the quarterbacks behind starter Justin Fields.
