Hours before the NFL's trade deadline at 4 p.m. EST on Tuesday, the Commanders (7-2) got four-time Pro Bowl cornerback Marshon Lattimore from the struggling Saints (2-7), three people with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press. They spoke on condition of anonymity because the teams have not announced the deal.

The Washington Commanders should be considered a buyer ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline. It order to acquire a key player, they are apparently willing to possibly part ways with former first-round cornerback Emmanuel Forbes.

The Washington Commanders need a cornerback, and Los Angeles Rams veteran Tre'Davious White is available for a trade.
