(AP) — Chiefs cornerback Marcus Peters says he chose to throw an officials’ flag in frustration during a loss to the New York Jets, so he had nobody to blame but himself for the resulting one-game suspension. Peters spoke briefly Friday for the first time since the incident three weeks ago. He returned last week to force three turnovers in a win over the Chargers.
