The Washington Commanders acquired New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore, team sources confirmed Tuesday. The Commanders receive Lattimore and a 2025 fifth-round pick in exchange forĀ a 2025 third, 2025 fourth and 2025 sixth received in the John Ridgeway trade, a team source confirmed.

The Saints drafted Lattimore with the 11th pick in 2017, and the CB has spent each of the last eight seasons in New Orleans. The four-time Pro Bowler posted 88 passes defended since entering the league, fifth-most over that span.

Lattimore, 28, joins a Commanders defense that ranks just 26th in defensive DVOA but is closer to league-average on defensive passing DVOA (17th), according to FTN. Allowing just 6.2 net yards per pass attempt this season, the Commanders now add a cornerback in Lattimore that led the Saints with a team-low 42.9 percent completion percentage allowed.
