NFL star takes insane catch with his backside

New Orleans Saints star Marshon Lattimore has taken one of the most remarkable interceptions in NFL history.

As if there wasn’t already enough animosity and history between the Saints and Atlanta Falcons, now there’s a crazy interception to add to the list, from the first half of Monday's game in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.

Matt Ryan’s pass for Marvin Hall was batted up by Hall, and landed on the butt of a diving Lattimore.

It never touched the ground before Lattimore gripped it with one leg then rolled over and claimed it as his own.

Catch of the Rear.

It held up on review, so there was no taking it back(side) for the Falcons.
