Eagles T Peters re-ruptures Achilles, out for 2012

PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Eagles Pro Bowl left tackle Jason Peters re-ruptured his right Achilles that he first hurt in March.

The Eagles confirmed the injury Monday. Peters was already out indefinitely and is likely to miss the 2012 season.

A five-time Pro Bowl selection, Peters is widely considered one of the best offensive linemen in the NFL. He spent his first five seasons with Buffalo before coming to Philadelphia in 2009.

The Eagles had no other details on Peters' latest setback. He injured his leg the first time while training in Texas.
