Grading Highlight of the Week: CB Jamal Peters, Hamilton
CFL cornerbacks don’t have it easy, especially boundary corners like Peters. Over the years, Peters has proven to be one of the league's best at the position, and this Week 6 game showcased that. Peters dropped back into coverage on 41 snaps, with six passes thrown into his coverage. Of those six targets, only two were caught, for a grand total of 15 yards and one first down. The other four targets? Two pass breakups and two interceptions.
Ottawa QB Dru Brown posted a comically low 2.8 passer rating when throwing into Peters' coverage.
Peters earned a 90.9 overall grade and a 90.9 coverage grade, finishing the week as the highest-graded coverage defender. It was his best game of the season by far, and it helped boost his season-long overall grade from 57.1 to 69.3.
