Marshon Lattimore and Michael Thomas are having quite a time in the NFL.

The New Orleans Saints currently look like one of the best teams in the league. The two former Buckeyes are a big reason for that.

New Orleans is cruising against the defending Super Bowl Champion Philadelphia Eagles Sunday with Lattimore and Thomas providing plenty of big plays. Defensively, Lattimore set the tone with a key turnover.

Lattimore made a beautiful read in the secondary by drifting to the center of the field on this play. Quarterback Carson Wentz never saw him as Lattimore ran down an under-thrown pass for the pick.

FOX Sports shared the video of the interception:


On the other side of the ball, Thomas is proving to be a handful for defenders. He ran right by his man on this play as Drew Brees fit a beautiful throw between two defenders for a key score.

The touchdown made the score 31-7 in favor of the Saints:

The two NFL stars were teammates at Ohio State in 2015. Thomas finished his OSU career with 1,602 yards receiving and 18 TDs. Lattimore’s best season came in 2016 when he recorded 41 tackles and 4 interceptions.
