Cameron Jordan named NFC Defensive Player of the Week after 3-sack game vs. Eagles

This is cool: Cameron Jordan has been named NFC Defensive Player of the Week after his big game against the Philadelphia Eagles won him the New Orleans Saints’ franchise sacks record. Jordan brought down Eagles quarterback Gardner Minshew three times last Sunday afternoon, which played a huge part in New Orleans pulling off the upset on the road.

Good for him. Jordan has worked hard and toiled for years on some gnarly defenses with the Saints, so it’s great to see him earn this kind of recognition after reaching such an important career milestone. He’ll look to add onto his career total in this week’s season finale with the Carolina Panthers.
