The Bills Benched Tyrod Taylor For Nathan Peterman and Everybody Made Seinfeld Jokes

Nathan Peterman replaces Tyrod Taylor and Twitter made a lot of J. Peterman 'Seinfeld' jokes

The Bills surprised the NFL world on Wednesday by announcing that quarterback Tyrod Taylor was going to the bench and Nathan Peterman would be the starter for Sunday's game against the Chargers. 

Peterman, who was a fifth-round pick out of Pitt in this year's draft, is not exactly a household name. However, Elaine Benes' boss and catalog guru, from Seinfeld, J. Peterman, is someone most TV viewers are familiar with. That led to Twitter making many references and jokes about the two Petermans.
