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.

Some Washington Commanders fans believe their team's moves at the Tuesday trade deadline have brought Jayden Daniels one step closer to a Super Bowl.

The eight-year veteran brings a Pro Bowl presence to a Washington team that had cornerback at the top of its needs list.
