Saints' Cam Jordan eyes Super Bowl glory in what he expects to be final NFL season

New Orleans Saints legend Cam Jordan hopes the door to his career isn’t cracked an inch. Hell, he hopes the thing is slammed shut after Year 16 in the National Football League this upcoming season.

After deliberation, Jordan, coming off a 10.5-sack 2025 campaign, re-signed with the Saints for one more year. And though the word "retirement" has not yet been uttered, Jordan has made it known he is going into this season expecting it to be his last in the league.

"I’ve been doing this since Year 10," Jordan told Fox News Digital over the phone, while also discussing his excitement to work alongside fellow pass rushers at the annual Sack Summit in Las Vegas this week alongside third-year official sponsor Raising Cane’s.

"Do I feel good? Absolutely. Do I feel better not being part of OTAs? Physically, yes!"

One of Jordan’s superpowers, other than getting after the quarterback, setting the edge and doing what a future Pro Football Hall of Fame defensive end can do, is being candid no matter the situation.

After seeing what first-year head coach Kellen Moore and defensive coordinator Brandon Staley had in place for him last year, Jordan knows his role on the Saints defense, saying he "can do whatever needs to be done" for his team. People questioned him in a two-point stance (an upright position with no hands on the ground at the line of scrimmage), but it clearly worked out when you view his numbers.

Jordan knows he can impact this Saints team that’s filled with potential, and that fire in his gut still burns to make a difference in the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. There’s also one last run in him to achieve the dream every football player has since they fell in love with the game as a child.

"The ultimate dream is to win a Super Bowl," Jordan said. "You go into childhood, coming out of childhood, like, ‘Man, I want to be just like the greats.’ For some reason, we accumulate the idea of success in football to winning a Super Bowl because it’s the ultimate team sport. That’s the ultimate team dream."

The personal accolades have been abundant for Jordan since he came out of the Cal Bears system as the 24th overall pick of the 2011 NFL Draft. The Saints took him and he hasn’t left Louisiana, showcasing loyalty on and off the field while racking up the 17th-most sacks all-time (132.0).

Of course, Jordan's goal during his final season in the black and gold will be to accumulate enough sacks to make it eight seasons in double digits. If he does so, he’ll be top 10 all-time in sacks.

"You look at Year 16 — this is who I am. This is my body of work. It has never changed," Jordan added.

But again, Jordan believes his Hall of Fame worthiness is etched in stone already. He could write up his speech for Canton, Ohio now before playing his final season.

Will that speech include the words "Super Bowl champion"? Jordan certainly hopes so, because what else is there to chase when you believe you've already done enough to earn a bust in the Pro Football Hall of Fame?

"I was sitting there this offseason and I was like, ‘Man, what is it I want to accomplish?’ A Super Bowl. Personally speaking, I’ve done it all. All-Pro, Pro Bowls. Hell, I put together a Pro Bowl-esque season last year."

Jordan, who will be 37 on Friday, is ready to give his all one last time before that door closes.
