That will be changing this week. Peterman will visit the New York Jets on Monday, Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News reported Sunday night.

If everything checks out medically and the Jets sign Peterman, he will replace Brandon Moore at right guard, according to Mehta. With former Pittsburgh Steelers veteran Willie Colon holding down left guard, the Jets then would seem likely to bypass the position early in the 2013 NFL Draft.
