Marshon Lattimore

There is a lot of excitement surrounding the Buccaneers’ offense with Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski now in the unit. With standout receivers like Mike Evans and Chris Godwin already in the mix, Tampa Bay will have a lot of star power on offense.

It could be a true challenge for the Saints if they fail to contain one of the Buccaneers’ top receiving options. With Marshon Lattimore in the No. 1 corner role, he will be tasked with challenging Evans.

The Saints have an impressive secondary to complement Lattimore as the team’s shutdown corner. So if he can manage to get the job done against Evans, New Orleans does have the necessary pieces to be able to keep Godwin and others in check.

The Saints do not have to rack up a ton of takeaways to be successful in this matchup. As long as they are limiting the Buccaneers from racking up a high-volume of points, New Orleans’ offense should be in a real position to be able to get the job done.
