According to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network, Washington Commanders defensive back Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) is off the injury report and is expected to suit up on Sunday night to face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Lattimore was traded to the Commanders earlier this season but could only make two starts due to a lingering hamstring injury. Over these two contests, Lattimore logged four tackles and three pass deflections. Lattimore was able to log two full practices to open the week and sat out on Friday due to rest. The 28-year-old will immediately return to the top spot on the depth chart, moving rookie Mike Sainristil to the No.2 spot. Lattimore will likely line up against top wideout Mike Evans throughout the evening, who he has been able to contain throughout his career. Across 21 games, Evans has averaged just 51.6 yards per game against him.
Marshon Lattimore Good To Go For Wild-Card Weekend
Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said on Friday that cornerback Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) is good to go for Sunday night's contest against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on wild-card weekend. Lattimore has missed plenty of time this year due to hamstring issues, including the final two games of the regular season, but the 28-year-old veteran cornerback will be available this weekend and is expected to try and shut down Bucs future Hall of Fame receiver Mike Evans in this matchup. It's worth noting that Lattimore held Evans to only two catches on six targets for 34 yards back in Week 6 when Lattimore was still with the New Orleans Saints. Evans will still be a top-five fantasy wideout on Sunday, but he could have more bust potential with Lattimore covering him. Even with Lattimore back, fantasy managers should avoid Washington's defense/special teams unit.
Washington Commanders cornerback Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) was a full participant in practice on Wednesday, which is a good sign for his chances of playing on Sunday night in the wild-card round of the playoffs versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. If Lattimore does indeed suit up, he'll likely draw a lot of veteran receiver Mike Evans, Tampa's top offensive weapon. The Commanders acquired Lattimore from the New Orleans Saints at the trade deadline, but he sat out Weeks 9-13 with a hamstring injury and missed the Week 18 regular-season finale as well with the same injury in the win over the Dallas Cowboys. Evans' fantasy upside might take a hit if Lattimore returns for the first round of the playoffs. Meanwhile, the Commanders defense/special teams unit should be faded this week against a Bucs offense that was among the best in the NFL in 2024.
According to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network, Washington Commanders defensive back Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) will not play on Sunday evening against the Atlanta Falcons. After making his Washington debut in Week 15, Lattimore sustained another injury to his hamstring last weekend. Lattimore missed time earlier this season due to his hamstring and could be in danger for another multi-game absence. Through nine games this season, Lattimore has tallied 34 tackles (25 solo) with five pass deflections. While sidelined, fantasy managers should expect rookie Mike Sainristil to operate as the CB1, with Benjamin St-Juste moving up to the No.2 spot on the depth chart.
Marshon Lattimore To Make Washington Debut In Week 15
Washington Commanders defensive back Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) is off the injury report and will make his Washington debut this weekend, facing his old team, the New Orleans Saints. Lattimore was traded to the nation's capital during the first week of November but has been sidelined due to a lingering hamstring injury. Before this injury, Lattimore logged 30 tackles (22 solo) and added two pass deflections over his first seven games of the campaign. Lattimore will slot at the No.1 spot on the depth chart and play alongside rookie Mike Sainristil. Sainristil has performed very well throughout his rookie season, averaging 5.2 tackles per game with nine total deflections and one interception. Lattimore will boost this secondary and make the Washington defense a strong streaming option facing a struggling New Orleans offense that has several injuries, including to their top two wideouts and quarterback Derek Carr (hand), who is listed as doubtful.
Marshon Lattimore On Track To Make Commanders Debut In Week 15
For the second straight day this week on Thursday, Washington Commanders cornerback Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) practiced in full as the team prepares to face the New Orleans Saints on Sunday in Week 15. Lattimore was acquired by the Commanders from the Saints on Nov. 5 but he hasn't made his debut for Washington yet due to his hamstring injury. As long as the 28-year-old defensive back doesn't suffer a setback on Friday at practice, he seems well on his to making his debut this weekend. If Lattimore is active on Sunday, he should start on the outside at cornerback, but the veteran could have his snaps limited given his long layoff. The former first-rounder is a four-time Pro Bowler and had 30 tackles (22 solo) in seven starts for the Saints to begin the year. Lattimore's impending return will be a welcomed boost to Washington's secondary down the stretch for a playoff push.
Marshon Lattimore To Be Full-Go In Wednesday's Practice
Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said that cornerback Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) will be a full participant in practice on Wednesday coming out of the bye week. While nothing is official yet, a full practice to begin the week of preparation is a good sign that Lattimore could make his debut with the Commanders in Week 15 against his former team, the New Orleans Saints. The Commanders acquired Lattimore from the Saints at the trade deadline to beef up what had been a shaky secondary in the beginning of the year. However, the 28-year-old defensive back has missed five straight games and has yet to debut in D.C. Barring a setback this week, he'll have a good shot at returning this weekend, although the Commanders could ease him back in after he missed so much time. Regardless of Lattimore's status, the Commanders' D is a nice streaming play in Week 15 against the Saints.
Marshon Lattimore Expected To Make Team Debut In Week 15
Washington Commanders cornerback Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) is expected to make his debut with the team following their bye in Week 14 to face his old team, the New Orleans Saints, in Week 15. The Commanders acquired Lattimore in a trade with the Saints on Nov. 5, but the 28-year-old defensive back has yet to play a snap in Washington due to a hamstring that has kept him out for five straight games with his new squad. The upcoming bye week will give Lattimore the extra rest needed to get his hamstring right, though, so the Commanders' secondary will be beefed up a bit more for their tilt against the Saints in Week 15. Before injuring his hamstring, Lattimore, a four-time Pro Bowler, had 30 tackles (22 solo) and two pass breakups in seven starts for New Orleans. When he debuts with the Commanders, it will be his first action with another team than the Saints since debuting in 2017.
Washington Commanders cornerback Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) will have to wait yet another weak to make his debut with the team, as the Commanders officially ruled him out of Sunday's Week 13 contest against the visiting Tennessee Titans. Lattimore was listed as doubtful to play this weekend, so it doesn't come as a surprise. The 28-year-old veteran defensive back was acquired in a trade from the New Orleans Saints back on Nov. 5 but he has yet to suit up for Washington in a game. The good news is that he put in three limited practices this week, so he could be inching closer to his Commanders debut. The team is on bye in Week 14, so the earliest Lattimore can make his Commanders debut now will come in Week 15 when they take on the New Orleans Saints. Lattimore was acquired to help improve a struggling secondary in D.C.
Washington Commanders defensive back Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans, according to Mike Garafolo of the NFL Network. Lattimore has yet to make his Washington debut as he remains sidelined with this hamstring injury. However, Lattimore was able to log three consecutive limited practice sessions this week, which suggests that he could be on his way to returning following their Week 14 bye. Earlier this season, Lattimore tallied 30 tackles (22 solo), eight assists, and two pass deflections through seven games with New Orleans. As a result, Mike Sainristil and Benjamin St-Juste will see most of the snaps on Sunday if Lattimore cannot suit up.
