Peters, who has been targeted more than any cornerback in the NFL, allowed nine receptions on 14 targets for 92 yards, according to Pro Football Focus. He also had a personal foul penalty after getting in the face of Michael Crabtree after a questionable no-call on the Raiders pick play.
That was the bad. The good is that Peters came up with one of the biggest plays of the day when he picked off Derek Carr AND returned it nearly 60 yards to set the Chiefs up for a touchdown. That touchdown gave the Chiefs the lead, which they held onto for the win.
Peters is tested so often because he's a rookie and because he's so aggressive at the line of scrimmage. He has given up the second most number of touchdowns in the league (seven) but also has the most interceptions (five) among cornerbacks.
In other words, Peters has been thrown into the fire. Sure, he's made his mistakes but just watching him play it's clear that he is going to be a very good player in the league.

As I said before. You take the good with the bad and he's going to get tested because he is a rookie. This article says he's been tested the most out of any CB in the league. I wonder what the throw at/TD allowed/Int ratio is?
Dude has been playing since game 1 as a rookie yes he's gotten beat a few times but also leads all CBs with Ints. Meanwhile that bum Armstread can't even beat out TJE to start a game and when he does play he gets sore.
