Marcus Peters says Alex Smith deserves more respect

The Washington Redskins' next quarterback continues to receive support from his former teammates, including one who also will be departing Kansas City.

On Monday, cornerback Marcus Peters told NFL Total Access that he did not agree with the Chiefs trading Smith to Washington, a move that becomes official on March 14 (the same day Peters’ trade to the Los Angeles Rams will be a done deal). Last month, tight end Travis Kelce praised Smith's ability to adjust his game.

"Man, Alex, Alex don't get enough respect,” Peters said.
