Texas A&M senior lineman announces return for 2021 declaring unfinished business
Jayden Peavy played a big part in Texas A&M’s Orange Bowl win Saturday night over North Carolina, notching a fumble recovery, two quarterback hurries and a batted pass. It turns out it won’t be the last time the senior defender suits up for the Aggies in 2021.
Peavy announced Sunday that he is taking advantage of his “COVID free year” of NCAA eligibility and coming back for another season at Texas A&M. Peavy shared the news in an awesome Twitter video featuring some pop culture references, such as “Anchorman” and “Wolf of Wall Street,” mixed with highlight plays.
Thank you Aggieland, this is God’s plan 🉑

Out of Bellaire, Texas, Peavy joined the Aggie program in 2017, Kevin Sumlin’s final season. He has appeared in 47 games, including 35 during the past three seasons under Jimbo Fisher. Each of the past two seasons he has recorded 34 total tackles and 5 TFLs.
It’s crazy that 2020 might be the best thing to happen to Aggie football. We have a lot to gain with the eligibility waivers!
I didn’t see any seniors coming back for 2021. This is big news hopefully they can still get some of that new talent some reps. Would hate to loose some depth from young guys wanting to play and transfer out. If jimbo can keep them out of transfer portal….gonna be reloading every year.
Same problem at running back. How do you keep Spiller and Achane happy? Defensive Line would be relatively easy to satisfy most players since rotations are expected and routine in every game at that position.
Winning cures a lot of ills. They just need to keep winning and they’ll be fine.
That’s the same problem every elite team faces. Not calling us elite yet, but convincing talented young guys to be patient is a necessity to sustain dominance. We better learn sooner or later.
Think it’s perfect, you need to have at least 2 backs! Why you always hear the one two punch. Plus with how much we run the ball they will both get a lot of touches. I’m happy the freshman looked good there and a giant AU. Love to see smith used more as a featured slot guy and hopefully get another big receiver as demas or really anyone. Get those filled and offense going to look great.
Awwww yeah! The big man is coming back! I love that the team’s bought into the idea of winning.
Is this real? I mean seriously I was on the Sonyphones listening to it with the lights out and started fearing it was something made by TexAgs.
THIS IS AWESOME.
…Would it not be ok for our entire offensive line to so take advantage of the VoCiD-19 rules and so bome cack?!!?!!??!!?!?!?!?!?!!!!
