Cam Jordan Becomes Saints' Franchise Sack Leader

In this story:
The Saints have a new franchise sack leader, and it's Cam Jordan. He entered Sunday trailing Rickey Jackson by 2.5, and notched 2 sacks in the first half against the Eagles. It was the 27th multi-sack game of his career. He got the final one late in the fourth quarter on Gardner Minshew.
Saints All-Time Sack Leaders
- Cam Jordan - 115.5
- Rickey Jackson - 115.0
- Wayne Martin - 82.5
- Pat Swilling - 76.5
- Will Smith - 67.5
New Orleans originally drafted Jordan in 2011 with their 24th Overall selection, and he's only missed two games in his career - one due to COVID, and one to an actual injury (eye). What he's done in his time with the black and gold is quite something, and he has solidified a place in franchise history.

I officially started covering the New Orleans Saints & other NFL topics in 2011. My work has been featured on various outlets over the years. I worked closely with Skyhorse Publishing in Fall 2018 to update the book, Tales From the New Orleans Saints Sidelines, which filled in all Saints material from the 2013-2017 seasons. Prior to joining Saints News Network, I served as the Managing Editor of SB Nation's Canal Street Chronicles for 3.5 years, and before that with FanSided's Who Dat Dish as the Managing Editor for several years. I have also had experiences of being a freelance Saints reporter for The Sun Herald in Biloxi, MS and a contributing writer for WDSU, a local NBC TV station in New Orleans. I have appeared on a vast amount of TV and Radio shows, both nationally and locally. For tips, comments, or suggestions, please contact me at johnhendrix@saintsnews.net
