Kansas City Chiefs Cornerback Marcus Peters has been named the AFC defensive player of the week after his 2 interception performance against the New York Jets.

Peters has back to back games with two picks and leads the NFL in interceptions since the start of the 2015 season.  Peters picked off career interceptions number 12 and 13 against the Jets’ Ryan Fitzpatrick.  The first interception set up the Chiefs for their only offensive touchdown of the game in a 24-3 win.  The second interception came off a tipped ball in the end zone in the 4th quarter.

This is Peters’ second career AFC defensive player of the week honor.
