Saints at Ravens snap counts: Cam Jordan plays every defensive snap

The New Orleans Saints didn't want to concede a single yard on Sunday.

In a game against the Baltimore Ravens, the Saints knew it'd be crucial to win the field-position battle, and that's part of the reason defensive end Cameron Jordan never came off the field.

Jordan, the 2017 All-Pro, played all 68 defensive snaps in the Saints' 24-23 win at M&T Bank Stadium. Jordan's previous season high was 62 snaps in the Saints' Week 3 win over the Falcons.

Jordan typically plays around 90 percent of snaps and takes the occasional breather, but in close games, the Saints are hesitant to take him off the field, knowing he's far and away their best pass rusher.
