New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore (ankle) is at the team's facilities and is expected to be in attendance for mandatory minicamp this week. Lattimore missed the final seven games last year due to an ankle injury but is back with the team and will stick around in 2024 despite trade rumors this offseason. The former 11th overall pick in 2017 out of Ohio State has been hampered by injuries in recent seasons, starting a combined 17 games since 2022. Before that, though, he was a Pro Bowler in four of his first five years in the NFL. If healthy, Lattimore remains a starter in New Orleans and will start across from rookie Kool-Aid McKinstry in what should be a pretty strong Saints defense. The 28-year-old has a total of 375 tackles (304 solo), 15 interceptions (two returned for touchdowns), 86 pass breakups, five forced fumbles and five fumble recoveries in his seven years in the league.
New Orleans Saints defensive back Marshon Lattimore (ankle) has been placed on the injured reserve on Saturday. That was quick after the Saints ruled out Lattimore for Sunday's game on Friday. Now, Lattimore is set to miss the next four games while he recovers from a high-ankle sprain. The absence of Lattimore will certainly be a blow to the Saints secondary. Alontae Taylor will likely be asked to start alongside Paulson Adebo going forward. Despite that, the Saints defense remains a playable option against the turnover-prone Desmond Ridder in Week 12.
New Orleans Saints defensive back Marshon Lattimore (ankle) has been ruled out for the Week 12 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. The star defensive back suffered a high-ankle sprain during Week 10. The Saints had a bye last week, but it appears that wasn't enough time for Lattimore to get back to full health. He wasn't able to practice at all this week, so it's not shocking to see him being ruled out for Week 12. In his absence, Alontae Taylor will likely be asked to start alongside Paulson Adebo in the secondary. It's unknown if Lattimore will be able to suit up next week, so we'll have to wait and see. The loss of Lattimore is certainly a hit to this secondary heading into Week 12.
New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore (ankle) suffered an ankle injury during the Week 10 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. The Pro Bowl defensive back got time to recover thanks to a Week 11 bye, but head coach Dennis Allen said his injury will "take some time" to recover from. He did not say whether or not Lattimore could end up on Injured Reserve. In Lattimore's absence, the New Orleans secondary, which has allowed the ninth-fewest fantasy points per game to wide receivers, could be weakened. 2022 second-round pick Alontae Taylor will likely see more snaps in games that Lattimore cannot suit up for.
New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore (ankle) exited Sunday's meeting with the Vikings early due to injury. The 27-year-old, who totaled four tackles in this one, sprained his ankle in the fourth quarter. As a result, NFL Media's Ian Rapoport indicated Lattimore will have an MRI on Monday to determine the severity of the injury. Fortunately, the Saints are off in Week 11, so there's a chance he could be back in Week 12 versus the Atlanta Falcons.
New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore (ankle) exited during the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings. He is officially questionable to return. At the time of his departure, Lattimore had logged four tackles. With a bye week ahead of him, the veteran defensive back will have extra time to recover. In the short term, Isaac Yiadom figures to log more snaps at cornerback in Week 10.
New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore (knee) didn't practice on Friday. While the exact nature of the ailment wasn't revealed initially, he was spotted wearing a "heavy leg wrap" during the joint practice with the Los Angeles Chargers. Head coach Dennis Allen provided an update, reporting Lattimore injured his knee. However, Allen didn't seem too concerned, indicating that the veteran recently "just planted and felt a little something" and was held out for "precautionary reasons." The 27-year-old has played his entire career in New Orleans, appearing in 80 games and totaling 362 tackles, 14 interceptions, and 78 passes defensed. He missed time last season due to injury, so the team is hoping the trend doesn't continue moving ahead. There should be an update on Lattimore's condition soon, although IDP managers shouldn't be alarmed if he takes it easy over the next few days.
New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore agreed to restructure his deal on Monday, according to a source. The move will save the Saints some more salary cap space in 2023. In addition to Lattimore, All-Pro pass-rusher Cameron Jordan also restructured his contract on Monday. The 26-year-old Lattimore missed 10 games in 2022 due to injury and finished with a career-low 29 tackles (20 solo), one interception returned for a touchdown and four passes defensed in seven starts. The four-time Pro Bowler should have a bounce-back year in 2023 if he can avoid more injuries, and he remains the team's No. 1 cornerback.
New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore (abdomen) is officially active in Week 17 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Lattimore has not been active since Week 5 due to an abdominal injury, but he'll be out there on Sunday. Because of the long layoff, it's not wise to expect the 26-year-old to be out there for every defensive snap, but his return will be a huge boost to the Saints' secondary against Eagles backup quarterback Gardner Minshew. The four-time Pro Bowl cornerback had 15 tackles (10 solo) and two passes defensed in his first five starts before getting injured. Despite the return of Lattimore, the Saints defense/special teams unit isn't recommended in fantasy while going up against the high-powered Eagles offense, even with Jalen Hurts (shoulder) out.
New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore (abdomen) is expected to play against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 17, according to NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. This is huge news for the New Orleans secondary considering Lattimore hasn't played since Week 5. Through his first five games, the former Pro Bowler amassed 15 tackles, including five in one game against the Vikings.
