Former Ohio State cornerback Marshon Lattimore has been a force on an island since he entered the NFL back in 2017. He did so well his first season that he was named the NFL’s Defensive Rookie of the Year and made the Pro-Bowl. He’s been an All-Pro now twice in his short career in New Orleans, and folks are taking notice.
Not only was Lattimore named a top ten cornerback for 2020 by ESPN, but he has also firmly in the NFL’s top 100 players that NFL.com has been publishing yearly. This time around, he is ranked as the No. 76 ranked player for 2020, up a few spots from No. 82 last season.
Lattimore is entering his fourth year in the league, and there’s no doubt he’ll show some of the same tenacity and coverage ability he’s shown so far. And this year, he’ll be joined with another former Buckeye and Pro-Bowler, Malcolm Jenkins.
DBU or BIA, Ohio State continues to have some of the best defensive backs playing on Sundays and it’ll be no different in 2020.
