The move comes as a bit of a shock to some, as Taylor has put up decent numbers (64.2 comp. %, 1,684 yards, 10 TD, 3 INT, 91.4 QB rating) for the 5-4 Bills through nine games.
However, the offense has struggled to move the ball on offense the last few weeks and has had its fair share of 3&outs with Taylor under center.
Following Buffalo’s 47-10 loss to New Orleans — a game in which Taylor completed just nine of 18 passes for 56 yards and Buffalo’s offense managed just 198 total yards — the Bills felt they needed a change at the quarterback position. And throwing Peterman out there is a the change they decided to go with this week.
Peterman, 23, is a fifth-round pick out of Pittsburgh and will make his NFL debut this Sunday against the Chargers.

Ben, 24, is a Salisbury University alum (located in Salisbury, MD), where he studied media production/film. He grew up in Centreville, MD as a huge NFL/NCAA follower starting at the age of five.
As of September 2016, Ben is a full-time sports editor for three weekly newspapers in southern Delaware. In his free time, when he's not covering local high school stories across Sussex County, DE, he acts as both the owner and executive editor of All-Out Blitz. Ben launched the site back in April of 2010.
The All-Out Blitz is a website created and launched by 25-year old sports editor Ben Heck in April of 2010. Looking for a way to express and share his vast football knowledge, Ben chose to take his talents to the internet and begin a year-round NFL blog for readers all over the nation. For three years, the All-Out Blitz was housed on a blogspot.com page, where it had 400+ articles and racked up over 50,000 page views. Deciding he needed to expand his readership, Ben made the decision to branch the website away from the blogspot page and purchase his own domain: bensalloutblitz.com. Bringing you bias-free football coverage on a 24/7/365 basis.
Throughout the past six and a half years, AOB has published over 1,900 articles, interviewed 75+ figures in the football industry, and garnered hundreds of thousands of page views.
