NFL News: Commanders giddy over new CB Marshon Lattimore, but intro might wait

Cornerback Marshon Lattimore spent his first day with the Washington Commanders getting to know the training staff.

Lattimore, acquired for three draft picks from the New Orleans Saints on Tuesday, has been dealing with a hamstring injury that could delay his debut in the Washington secondary.

General manager Adam Peters said Lattimore is officially day-to-day, but he couldn’t hide the Commanders’ view of the significance in completing the deal for the four-time Pro Bowler.

“What does Marshon mean? He’s a competitor,” Peters said. “We’re adding a real dog-ass competitor to a group of guys who like to fight and like to battle. To me, that’s extension of competing, to say we’re not going to miss a moment to add a competitor onto our team.”

Head coach Dan Quinn said the NFC East-leading Commanders (7-2) are ready to introduce Lattimore when he’s physically ready. He took in part of practice with defensive passing game coordinator Jason Simmons.

“It’s a great situation for me to be in,” said Lattimore, 28. “I’m excited for it.”

Lattimore said he was put at ease walking into the Washington locker room and reconnecting with fellow former Buckeyes, including wide receiver Noah Brown, who was in the same Ohio State recruiting class, and wide receiver Terry McLaurin. Lattimore said he’s known McLaurin since he was 17 years old.

Borrowing from the movie “Jerry Maguire,” Quinn said Lattimore “had me at hello.”

“He stands for the right stuff, he’s got an attitude to battle, we’re really pumped to have him here,” Quinn said.

Washington hosts the Pittsburgh Steelers (6-2) on Sunday afternoon.
