Coming off a dominant win against the Green Bay Packers, the New Orleans Saints have more good news to share.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Marshon Lattimore agreed to a five-year, $97.6 million contract extension after Sunday’s game. It marks the largest full guarantee ($68.3 million) at signing for any corner in league history.

Finally, Lattimore is getting paid as one of the highest-valued cornerbacks in the NFL, and it’s exactly what he deserves.

Lattimore is one of the last remaining veterans in the Saints’ cornerback group along with Ken Crawley.
