Peters announced his retirement from the NFL on Thursday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Peters played 12 seasons in the NFL after being selected in the third round of the 2010 Draft by the Atlanta Falcons. His time in the league also included a stop in Arizona before finishing his career with the Jaguars last season. The 34-year-old amassed 336 tackles in his career along with nine sacks, three fumble recoveries and an interception.

Jacksonville signed Peters to the active roster Wednesday. Peters was elevated from the practice squad for Week 5 and made his season debut, recording four tackles across 25 defensive snaps. The veteran defensive tackle has played in 153 career games, including 14 appearances with the Cardinals last season, and figures to garner a solid role along the Jaguars' defensive line moving forward.

Peters (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports. Peters sat out the first two days of practice this week with a shoulder injury but returned in a limited capacity Friday. If he's unable to play, Zach Kerr would likely take on a starting role.

Peters tested positive for COVID-19 and was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Sunday. Peters has served as a rotational lineman along the Cardinals' defensive front, tallying a total of six tackles across five games. He could also be in danger of missing the team's Week 7 contest against the Texans, depending on how quickly he can pass through the league's health protocols. Jonathan Ledbetter was promoted from the practice squad to fill in for Peters.

The Cardinals placed Peters (kneecap) on injured reserve Thursday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports. Coach Kliff Kingsbury told reporters Wednesday that Peters was ruled out of the remainder of the season due to a torn patellar tendon, so this news isn't surprising. The veteran is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, so he'll look to get healthy and earn a new contract.
