Nathan Michael Peterman (born May 4, 1994) is an American professional football quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the Pittsburgh Panthers following a stint with the Tennessee Volunteers and was selected by the Buffalo Bills in the fifth round of the 2017 NFL draft.
Peterman struggled early in the NFL, throwing five interceptions during the first half of his starting debut and posting a 0.0 passer rating in the 2018 season opener. His 11 interceptions between 2017 and 2018 are the most for a quarterback with less than 100 passing attempts.[1] Released by the Bills during the 2018 season, Peterman spent his next six seasons as a backup for the Raiders and Chicago Bears.
