Marcus Peters had a HUGE interception in the Kansas City Chiefs victory over the Oakland Raiders. In the fourth quarter with the game tied, Peters picked off a Derek Carr pass which gave the Chiefs the ball. The bigger part of the play was the 58-yard return he tacked on to give the Chiefs the ball at the Raiders 13-yard line. The Chiefs would go on to score, take the lead and win the game.
For our sappy moment, here's what Peters, who is from Oakland and had friends and family in the crowd, did with the ball.

It was his fifth interception of the season. I think Mom is going to get a few more of those balls before Peters' career is over with.
