Former Ohio State Cornerback Marshon Lattimore Makes Game-Winning Tackle for New Orleans Saints in Overtime

Marshon Lattimore made the game-winning play in the New Orleans Saints' overtime victory against the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday Night Football.

With the Chargers needing to score to keep the game alive in overtime, Lattimore came up with a crucial tackle – with an assist from his Saints teammate Demario Davis – to pull Mike Williams down short of the first-down line on 4th-and-7 to end the game.

While Lattimore had his ups and downs over the course of the game, giving up multiple long catches including one by Williams that led to a potential game-winning field goal attempt that went off the right upright at the end of regulation, the former Ohio State cornerback ultimately made the play of the game to elevate the Saints to a 30-27 win, improving their record to 3-2 for the season.
