Saints welcome first-round pick Marshon Lattimore by misidentifying him in tweet

Connor O'Gara | 7 years ago

If you thought the misidentifying of Marshon Lattimore would stop after he got drafted, think again.

The New Orleans Saints — the team that drafted Lattimore No. 11 overall — was the latest team to use a picture of Raekwon McMillan from the national championship and pass it off as Lattimore.

Here it is:

McMillan of course switched to No. 5 after that 2014-15 season. For whatever reason, several teams didn’t use a picture of the first-team All-B1G selection from 2016.

Here’s hoping Lattimore gets a better in-person welcome to New Orleans than the one he got on social media.
