Cam Jordan

For the last three straight seasons, Cam Jordan has averaged double-digit sack totals.

This season, through three games, he’s yet to get a quarterback on the ground. That should be a concern for one of the most dominant defensive ends in the NFL. He has just one tackle for a loss as well.

The 31-year-old has eight solo tackles and 13 total tackles on the season. After having 25 quarterback hits in 2019, Jordan has just one in 2020. It’s been a brutal season for the star, and he’s yet to have too much of an impact on the game.

Jordan had 15.5 sacks last season. He had two through three games. It’s also nice to know that he had two sacks in the team’s first four games.

He did have 10.5 sacks in seven games last season, a streak of which was in the middle of the season. Jordan has time to recoup his confidence, but he needs to do it soon as the Saints line is struggling without his dominance.
