Cornerback Marshon Lattimore practiced Wednesday for the first time since joining the Washington Commanders in a Nov. 5 trade with the New Orleans Saints.
Head coach Dan Quinn confirmed the four-time Pro Bowl selection’s return from a hamstring injury that also kept him out of his final game with the Saints in Week 9.
“We’re pumped to get him back on the field,” said Quinn, who stopped short of saying Lattimore would play Sunday against the Tennessee Titans (3-8) in Landover, Md.
The Commanders (7-5) have a bye in Week 14 and will visit Lattimore’s former team in New Orleans in Week 15.
Lattimore, 28, recorded 30 tackles and two passes defensed in seven starts with the Saints this season.
The 2017 Defensive Rookie of the Year tallied 15 interceptions (two returned for touchdowns), five fumble recoveries and 405 tackles in 97 starts over seven-plus seasons with New Orleans. The Saints drafted him with the 11th overall pick in 2017.
