In the latter years of his career, Cameron Jordan versus the cliff has been a frequent conversation. There’s been seasons where he starts slow but somehow bounces back to finish with seven or more sacks.
There wasn’t a bounce back last year, and this year he’s felt like a non-factor until the last two weeks. The move from Dennis Allen to Darren Rizzi has reinvigorated the New Orleans Saints, but it’s less about reinvigoration and more about getting chances.
“I’ve been asking for opportunities all season. Given opportunities there’s going to be certain advantages. You’re able to display talents you’ve displayed every year of your career as well as help the team get a win,” Jordan said.
Jordan only played 10 snaps in Allen’s last game. His snaps have balanced out to where they were earlier in the season. And in the last two games, Jordan recorded his first sack of the season and followed it up with his first game with multiple pressures this year.
This may be his final stint, but Jordan is looking to show he is more than he showed at the start of the season.
