Summary

  • New Orleans agreed to a one-year deal with Cameron Jordan, bringing back the longtime defensive end after months on the market as an unrestricted free agent.
  • Jordan turns 37 in July but is coming off 10.5 sacks and 15 quarterback hits, his best production since the 2021 season.
  • The move keeps Jordan with the only NFL team he has known and adds veteran continuity to a Saints roster that finished 6-11 last year.
  • New Orleans still closed 2025 by winning four of its final five games behind rookie quarterback Tyler Shough, finishing only two games behind NFC South leader Carolina.
