The New Orleans Saints have just made a major move to keep one of their most important players around for the foreseeable future. On Tuesday, the team announced that they have signed defensive end Cameron Jordan to a two-year contract extension, making him the all-time franchise sack leader.
Jordan has been a key piece of the Saints’ defense since he was drafted in 2011. He has been selected to six Pro Bowls and was named a first-team All-Pro in 2017. He has also been a leader in the locker room, serving as a captain for the past three seasons.
The two-year extension will keep Jordan in New Orleans through the 2022 season. It is a well-deserved reward for one of the team’s most consistent performers. Jordan has recorded at least seven sacks in each of his nine seasons with the Saints, and he currently holds the franchise record with 96.5 career sacks.
The signing of Jordan is a major boost for the Saints’ defense, which already features several talented players. With Jordan anchoring the defensive line, the Saints should be able to continue their success on that side of the ball.
Jordan is also an important part of the Saints’ culture. He is a passionate leader who is beloved by his teammates and coaches. He is also very active in the community, hosting numerous events and donating his time to various charities.
The signing of Jordan is a great move for the Saints and their fans. He is an elite player who will continue to be an important part of the team’s success for years to come.
