Saints DE Cameron Jordan (hamstring) to miss ‘a little’ time

New Orleans Saints defensive end Cameron Jordan will “miss a little bit of time” with a hamstring injury, ​head coach Kellen Moore confirmed ‌Tuesday.

Jordan, who turned 37 last month, signed a one-year deal in June to play his 16th and what he called his “final season” with ‌the ​Saints in 2026.

He sustained ⁠the injury last ⁠week and Moore said there is a possibility it could linger into the regular season, which begins on Sept. ​13 against the host Detroit Lions.

“We’ll see,” Moore said, per NOLA.com. “It could ⁠possibly get into the ⁠season, but you never know. ​So these things, you’ve just got to ​have some patience with it, let it ‌take its course and we’ll collect more and more information as we go.”

Jordan is one of the most durable ⁠players in NFL history, having missed only two games — one with an injury and one due ⁠to ‌COVID — since New Orleans drafted ⁠him in the first round ​in ‌2011.

Jordan had 10.5 sacks last ​year and ⁠ranks 17th on the NFL’s all-time list with 132 sacks in 243 career games. The eight-time Pro Bowl selection became the franchise leader in sacks in 2025.
