Later in the second quarter, Marcus Peters corraled his 28th career interception, reading and reacting to Deshaun Watson’s eyes as only Peters can do. Anticipating where Watson would throw, Peters broke quickly to his left and went airborne to make a remarkable diving interception that put Peters’ athletic ability on full display.
Any cornerback can gamble, but when Peters gambles he usually wins. After the game, Watson was so impressed that he asked Peters what he saw on the interception.
“I was asking him about it, if he knew what was coming or if he read my eyes,” Watson said.
