New Orleans Saints Cornerback Marshon Lattimore Intercepts a Pass With His Butt

I don't know what it is, but there's something about football games played on holidays where a player makes a play with his butt. Of course, who could forget the famous "Butt Fumble" from Thanksgiving five years ago, where then-New York Jets quarterback Matt Sanchez ran into his own lineman, immediately fumbling and leading to a touchdown for the Patriots.


New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore might have done even one better. He literally caught a ball with his backside. I've already heard plenty of names for this – "assterception," "backside interception," "butt pick." Whatever your poison, go wild. Plays like this don't happen very often. 

Lattimore's interception ultimately led to points, as the Saints scored a touchdown three plays later. New Orleans would go on to win the game 23-13, as well, locking up a playoff bid in the process. They can clinch the NFC South next week with a victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

All thanks to a magnetic booty.
