The Saints will receive a third-round pick, a fourth-round pick, and a sixth-round pick in the 2025 NFL draft.
The Commanders will receive Lattimore and a 2025 fifth-round pick.
Lattimore, 28, was selected 11th overall in the 2017 draft. He was named the Associated Press Defensive Rookie of the Year in ’17, and was selected to the Pro Bowl in 2017, 2019, 2020, and 2021. Lattimore missed ten games to injury in 2022 and missed another seven games in 2023. He’s currently nursing a hamstring issue.
The Eagles (6-2) will face Lattimore and the Commanders (7-2) on November 14 and December 22.
