The Las Vegas Raiders are “likely” to sign free agent cornerback Marcus Peters before training camp, The Athletic reported Thursday.

Peters, 30, met with the Raiders last month and the two sides have remained in contact since his visit, per the report.

A two-time All-Pro, Peters started 13 games for the Baltimore Ravens last season after missing all of 2021 with a torn ACL. He registered 47 tackles and added a sack, an interception and two fumble recoveries.

The Kansas City Chiefs selected Peters with the 18th overall pick in 2015, and he went on to earn NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year honors that season.

Peters has played in 104 games (103 starts) with the Chiefs (2015-17), Los Angeles Rams (2018-19) and Ravens (2019-20, 2022). He has 346 tackles, 32 interceptions (six returned for touchdowns), 11 forced fumbles and 10 fumble recoveries, with one returned for a TD.
