Most notably, how would defensive end Cam Jordan respond after having a down year in 2014? The Saints front office didn’t think much into it, as they extended Jordan to a six-year, $61.9 million contract on June 2, 2015. The deal gave Jordan $33.4 million guaranteed, which included a $16 million signing bonus. A switch and simplification of the New Orleans Saints defensive scheme allowed Jordan to flourish under both Rob Ryan and Dennis Allen.
Cam Jordan’s 50 quarterback pressures ranked second among all 4-3 defensive ends, as per Pro Football Focus.
