The Baltimore Ravens defense has come to play big-time during the early stages of the 2020 NFL season. That included a blowout win over the division-rival Cleveland Browns in Week 1.

Baltimore’s elite defense was back up to its old tricks against Deshaun Watson and the Houston Texans in a potential AFC playoff preview on Sunday.

Check out Pro Bowl cornerback Marcus Peters come up with what has to be considered the interception of the young NFL season against the recently extended Watson.

That’s about as good as it gets for a defensive back at any level. Diving. Going all out. Somehow coming away with the interception.

This is nothing new for the former Kansas City Chiefs first-round pick and NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year. Peters, 27, has now recorded a whopping 28 interceptions in 79 career games.

That includes four in 12 games with the Ravens after they acquired him in a blockbuster trade with the Los Angeles Rams during the 2019 season.
