The Packers’ Week 5 villain has been cut

Related Topics: Green Bay Packers, Marcus Peters

According to The Athletic’s Vic Tafur, the Las Vegas Raiders have decided to release cornerback Marcus Peters, which means the former All-Pro will be subject to waivers on Tuesday. Green Bay Packers fans will remember Peters as the player who brought down receiver Christian Watson by the horse collar in Week 5 on Monday Night Football. Watson was able to take that now-infamous catch for 77 yards, but Peters’ illegal tackle saved the touchdown. Ultimately, the Packers were unable to punch in the score and ended up losing that game 17-13 in Vegas.
