Julius Peppers exactly what Packers' defense needs
Posted Nov 17, 2014
One hand at his chin, one in his pocket, Julius Peppers thought about the latest question about his age for a brief moment. He now has two interceptions returned for touchdowns this season. This is precisely why he wanted to be a 3-4 outside linebacker, yes. But Peppers was also 3-4, as in 34 years old. There are grays sprouting in his hair, his beard. Whether he still had big-play ability at his age was a very real unknown heading into this season.
