The Oakland Raiders have signed former Buffalo Bills quarterback Nathan Peterman to their practice squad according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
The #Raiders have signed QB Nathan Peterman to the practice squad, source said, not the 53-man roster. Jon Gruden has said in the past he loves him and now he gets him (updating an earlier tweet).

Adam Schefter was first to report that the Raiders had signed the 24-year old quarterback and Rapoport was the first to report that Peterman was signed to the practice squad and not the 53-man roster.
Peterman has worked out with multiple teams this season, including the Tampa Bay Buccaneers earlier this week but landed with the Raiders. Reports earlier in the week said that Raiders head coach Jon Gruden “is very high” on the quarterback and that report looks to be confirmed with the signing today.
Peterman has started in four games this season and has thrown for 296 yards, one touchdown, and seven interceptions.
