New Orleans’ four-time Pro Bowl defensive end Cameron Jordan and the Saints reached agreement on a big three-year contract extension that will contractually tie the two sides together for the next five seasons, through the 2023 season, sources tell ESPN.

Cam Jordan is turning 30 on July 10 and wanted financial security now; Saints wanted to keep one of their top players and leaders happy as they try to ensure he finishes his career in New Orleans. He now has five years and max of $74.5M left on deal after 3-year, $52.5M extension

Good deal, they needed to lock him up. He is the leader of the entire defense.

For the curious there would be no dummy years added on to this contract to spread his hit (yet). The max you can spread a signing bonus is 5 years and this is now essentially a 5 year deal (2 old plus 3 new).

2-3 years down the line if need be we can add a couple of dummy years for cap relief.

Not complaining, but didn't someone post an article a couple weeks ago that Cam was willing to take a paycut to stay with the Saints?

Edit: Thanks, Bonethug...found article on first page. He said he wasn't looking for Mack or Donald money.

Im thinking showing players you’re willing to reward them for past performance when they were underpaid goes a long way in convincing the younger guys that taking less now will more than pay off for them in the end.

If any man deserves it, it’s Cam. Glad he will retire a Saint!

It wasn't that exactly. He was saying that players go for huge money, and he wanted to retire a Saint and knew they would take care of him.
