The Washington Commanders are making a huge addition to their secondary, bringing in four-time Pro Bowl cornerback Marshon Lattimore ahead of Tuesdays NFL trade deadline.

Lattimore, the 2017 Defensive Rookie of the Year, joins the Commanders after seven-and-a-half seasons with the New Orleans Saints and is expected to have a significant impact on their defense.

According to Jordan Schultz, Washington is letting a third-round pick go the other way, having entered negotiations for the CB over the past few days in the knowledge that no other team could offer the type of capital they could.

Washington swooped in on Marshon Lattimore very recently according to a source. They knew they had the most to offer and would blow away any other team, he wrote. And they did it for a 3rd rounder.

The 7-2 Commanders are buying BIG at the trade deadline.
