Marshon Lattimore returns to Saints’ practice ahead of Week 12 following injury
Published:
Marshon Lattimore is poised for a comeback after missing six straight games this season.
The former Ohio State CB turned New Orleans Saint suffered an abdominal injury trying to defend a touchdown pass in the win against Seattle back in October.
Lattimore’s absence was felt by the Saints’ defense, which was already struggling this season. Prior to his injury, Lattimore accounted for 15 total tackles, 10 solo tackles, and 2 pass breakups.
It was reported on Wednesday that Lattimore had returned to practice by Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football.
