The honors keep rolling in for Chiefs cornerback Marcus Peters.
On Wednesday, Peters was named the AFC’s defensive player of the week for his two-interception performance in the Chiefs’ 24-3 win over the New York Jets on Sunday.
This marks the second time Peters has won the award during his career. He also won it in December, when he recorded two interceptions in the Chiefs’ 34-14 win over the Baltimore Ravens.
Peters, 23, has recorded 12 career interceptions during the regular season. He nabbed a league-high eight last year, when he also led the NFL in pass defensed with 26, made the Pro Bowl and was named the league’s defensive rookie of the year.
