Cameron Jordan elbows Kyle Allen in head, drawing dumb 15-yard penalty

The New Orleans Saints and Cameron Jordan are probably lucky that the Pro Bowl defensive end wasn’t ejected in the second quarter of their game against the Carolina Panthers.

But Jordan definitely cost the defense.

With just under four minutes to play in the first half, the Panthers were facing third-and-16 from their own 39. Linebacker Demario Davis had Carolina’s Kyle Allen sacked and was trying to rip the ball out of his grasp.

That should have been the end of the play, with the Panthers punting from deep in their own territory.
