The New Orleans Saints have signed All-Pro defensive end Cameron Jordan to a three year contract extension, in news first reported by Adam Shefter of E.S.P.N. on Tuesday morning.
Jordan, who will turn 30 on July 10, is one of the best defensive players in the NFL and a New Orleans fan favorite. He was a 1st round draft choice in 2011 (24th overall) out of the University of California. He has never missed a game in his eight years with New Orleans, and has started 127 out of 128 regular season contests.
