Lattimore has been voted to four Pro Bowls in his career, including three straight from 2019-21. His first Pro Bowl appearance came after his rookie season in 2017, when he was named the Defensive Rookie of the Year for recording five interceptions (one returned for a touchdown), 18 pass breakups and 53 tackles. According to Pro Football Focus, Lattimore allowed a catch rate of just 53.8% and zero touchdowns.<\/p>\n
From 2019-21, Lattimore recorded six interceptions, 44 pass breakups and 187 tackles. During that span, the Saints were a top 15 team in passing yards allowed in 2020 and 2021. They also held quarterbacks to the fourth lowest passer rating in each of those seasons.<\/p>\n
Lattimore has played in seven games this season, recording 30 tackles and two pass breakups.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Washington Commanders have acquired cornerback Marshon Lattimore via trade with the New Orleans Saints, pending a physical.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":170172,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2076],"tags":[7,1806,896,55,2572,2571,6,397,1805],"class_list":{"0":"post-170171","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-orleans-saints","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-football-news","10":"tag-new-orleans","11":"tag-new-orleans-saints","12":"tag-neworleans","13":"tag-neworleanssaints","14":"tag-nfl","15":"tag-saints","16":"tag-subsection-news"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/114772043669931688","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/170171","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=170171"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/170171\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/170172"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=170171"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=170171"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=170171"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
