Rams getting Marcus Peters from Chiefs for 2018 4th, 2019 2nd

The Los Angeles Rams acquired defensive back Marcus Peters from the Kansas City Chiefs in exchange for a 2018 fourth-round pick and 2019 second-round pick, reports Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

What It Means:

The deal was first reported last Friday but won't become official until the new league year begins on March 14. Trumaine Johnson is expected to become a free agent, so Peters will slide in and take over as the Rams' top corner. The 25-year-old leads all players at his position in interceptions (19) since entering the league in 2015.

Peters recorded 46 tackles (42 solo) with 5 interceptions, 9 pass deflections, 4 forced fumbles, and 1 touchdown last season.
