Cameron Jordan and Jason Pierre-Paul have the most sacks of any active duo

As many of us know by now, New Orleans Saints defensive end Cameron Jordan set the official franchise record for most sacks, and he currently sits at 117.5. This number puts Jordan at number two on the active sack leaders list, behind only Von Miller of the Buffalo Bills.

Newly acquired pass rusher Jason Pierre-Paul is also near the top of that list, with 94.5 sacks in his career (No. 6 among active players). And few teams boast the combined resumes of those two sack artists. Jordan and Pierre-Paul have more career sacks than any other duo around the league. Here are the five duos with 150 or more combined sacks, per Pro Football Reference and Stathead:

  1. Cameron Jordan (117.5) and Jason Pierre-Paul (94.5): 212 sacks
  2. Von Miller (123.5) and Leonard Floyd (54.5): 178 sacks
  3. T.J. Watt (88) and Cameron Heyward (78.5): 166.5 sacks
  4. Khalil Mack (93.5) and Joey Bosa (67): 160.5 sacks
  5. Calais Campbell (102) and Bud Dupree (49.5): 151.5 sacks

Hopefully Pierre-Paul will continue to add to that sacks total this season for New Orleans, as he had three last season with the Baltimore Ravens and a fourth in the playoffs on limited snaps. The Saints need all the help they can get while tied for the fifth-fewest sacks (18) in the league going into their Week 11 bye.
