Chiefs Marcus Peters also had verbal altercation with assistant coach Sunday - Page 26

Chiefs cornerback Marcus Peters’ frustration following the Chiefs’ 38-31 loss to the New York Jets didn’t end immediately after the game, it appears.

According to a report by NFL Network’s Mike Garafalo, Peters also had a verbal altercation with an assistant coach on the bus during the team’s ride to airport following the game. The assistant coach was not named.

The Star reported Thursday that Peters’ suspension was related to his decision to leave the field prematurely following the flag toss. The club viewed that as a team issue, as opposed to the penalty flag toss, which it deemed a league issue that Peters was ultimately fined $24,409 for on Friday.

The NFL Network report cited Peters’ decision to leave the field as a reason for the one-game suspension coach Andy Reid levied on him earlier this week, with the verbal altercation also being a contributing factor.

The Chiefs still had a little over two minutes left to tie the game, and Peters returned to the sideline –– albeit with no socks –– as the offense made its last-gasp attempt. But the drive stalled out, and the Chiefs lost for the sixth time in seven games.

Peters’ suspension means the Oakland native will miss the Chiefs’ showdown Sunday against his hometown Raiders. He was not allowed to practice this week and will forfeit a game check.

After hearing more about this and then remembering Malcom Butler is a FA this year I bet he is their target to replace Peters. Sorry if this idea was posted before, I didn't bother to catch up in this thread.

Butler excels playing Man which Sutton likes and if they are really done with Peters and his attitude I could see him being the guy they target in FA. They could pay him a bit less than Peters would want and depending on what you believe happened during SB week, if anything did, he should be a better character guy than Peters.

If this happens, Malcolm Butler is the LAST guy on Veach' radar

So say Peters gets traded.....that puts your starters as?

Fuller and Amerson? Fuller and Nelson?

If it happens then they are clearly not interested in winning this year. Either option won't matter much.

I'm on record. Peters is easily my least favorite Chief.

His tackling sucks, his attitude sucks. I would wager he is a locker room asshole, a risk of getting suspended for legal or drug tests and more. In addition to the likelihood of contract negotiations, how do you think he will respond to getting a huge contract? Think that will really motivate him? Doubt it.

If the people on the inside think it's time to move on....if Andy Reid is ready to move on...he's a problem.

We just want to take the secondary from a strength to a weakness yet again before the season even starts. How exciting!

**Iowanian** · 02-20-2018, 11:43 AM

I'd personally prefer players on defense that don't avoid contact like someone sneezing on them on a train.

Just wow, the level of stupidity from the Marcus Peters haters is breathtaking.

Bring this back to the top in 5 years.

It's not like he doesn't have a history of being an asshole and a problem. He was suspended in college and now the NFL. In the real world, we call that a trend.

I kind of prefer guys who take the ball from the opposing offense and give it back to our offense or score points from it

Yeah, that's nice. Imagine if he tried to tackle the rest of the game too.

I'm not screaming from the rooftops to trade him. I'm saying he's my least favorite Chief. I don't like him as a fan of the team.

Andy Reid will protect, defend and promote about any player. If he gives up on a player enough that he would be willing to trade a player in this circumstance, what does it tell you?

If they trade him, I'll be just fine with it. If they don't trade him, I hope he tackles this year and stays off of the suspended list.

I prefer guys that sit for the anthem, so that mentally weak folk can emote and melt in their boots. That's my personal favorite.

Brushes off more important trait for a corner to emphasize a lesser one

In the real world we call your baseless projections "bullshit".

How do you know Marcus Peters is a "locker room cancer"? Are you in the Chiefs locker room? Have you talked to Chiefs players and coaches?

Also your projections that Peters will get in legal trouble and fail drug tests is based on what? Peters has had zero legal trouble/issues in the NFL.
