The Saints continue to field questions about trading linebacker Marshon Lattimore.
Head coach Dennis Allen called Lattimore “a big part of our football team ” in February and the subject came up again during General Manager Mickey Loomis ’ press conference on Tuesday. Loomis said “yeah” when asked if he feels comfortable Lattimore will be on the roster this fall, but a follow-up elicited a more complex answer about the veteran’s potential.
“You ask questions, and you have the right to ask the question, but you know, listen: Everyone is tradable, it really depends on the offer that you get, ” Loomis said, via Luke Johnson of NOLA. web. “And already, that ’s not very common. . . . I don’t like investing people that have been participants for us. ”
Lattimore made three straight Pro Bowls from 2019 to 2021, but accidents have limited him to 17 games over the last two months. That perhaps won’t support the chances of Loomis getting an offer that bowls him over, but Lattimore may stay on track for a chance at better health in New Orleans.
