Even after drafting Marshon Lattimore in the 1st Round of the 2017 NFL Draft, the starting pair of Cornerbacks for the New Orleans Saints in Week 1 was PJ Williams and De’Vante Harris after the latter shined in the 2017 preseason.

Eventually Lattimore and Ken Crawley took over as primary Cornerbacks for the Saints with PJ coming in as the third Cornerback on passing downs. Harris still saw starter’s snaps when Lattimore went down with injury late in the season. Delvin Breaux was never able to return in 2017 due to injury, so the Saints were forced to rely on Crawley, PJ Williams, Harris, and a re-signed Sterling Moore to hold down the fort in the secondary.
