Here’s when Marshon Lattimore will play the Saints with his new team

The New Orleans Saints’ trade of Marshon Lattimore to the Washington Commanders is complete, and now they will have to face him sooner rather than later. The Commanders have a Dec. 15 date set with the Saints in the Caesars Superdome for a matchup that will likely end up not going the way of New Orleans based on their performances this season.

With the Commanders sitting at 7-2 and atop the NFC East, a matchup with the 2-7 bottom of the NFC South Saints is likely not much of a threat, especially now with their new defensive powerhouse Marshon Lattimore.

This will be the first matchup between these teams since 2021 when the Saints beat the Washington Football team 33-22 in one of their transition years. Overall, however, Washington leads this series all-time with a 17-11-0 record, despite the Saints winning the last three games. In that 2021 matchup, Lattimore held Terry McLaurin to 4 receptions for 46 yards during what was likely the peak of both of their careers statistically. He will now have his first shot at the Saints only a month after being traded away.
