New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore suffered a thumb injury that will require surgery during Sunday's win over the Green Bay Packers, per Pro Football Talk.
This is another setback after Lattimore missed time in 2019 with a hamstring injury on his way to 14 games. He also played 14 games in 2020.
New Orleans selected Lattimore with a first-round pick out of Ohio State in 2017, and he wasted little time making an impact.
He was the Defensive Rookie of the Year and a Pro Bowler in 2017 with 52 tackles, five interceptions, a fumble recovery and a forced fumble and followed up with 59 tackles, four forced fumbles, three fumble recoveries and two interceptions in his second season.
