Peters played 22 matches with W Connection during the 2016–17 season (18 in league, 4 in Champions League) before being loaned out to American second-tier side Toronto FC II in April 2017, after a preseason trial.[1]

He made his league debut with the team on April 7, appearing as a part of the starting XI in a 0–0 draw with the Rochester Rhinos.[2] After another appearance against Ottawa Fury, Toronto FC II signed Peters to a permanent contract on May 19.[2] Later that day, he played against Tampa Bay Rowdies, again in head coach Jason Bent's starting XI.[3]

In April 2021, Peters signed with Pittsburgh Riverhounds after a successful trial.[4]

Peters was called up to the Trinidad and Tobago national team in November 2016, and appeared on the bench in 2018 World Cup qualifying games against Costa Rica and Honduras.[5]
