There are 94 days to go until the New Orleans Saints<\/a> start their 2025 season, which makes one of Cameron Jordan’s best moments our pick for the Saints Play of the Day.<\/p>\n

Facing the archrival Atlanta Falcons<\/a> back in 2019 with an NFC South title on the line, Jordan led the Saints defense with a standout performance that won him recognition as the NFC Defensive Player of the Week. Jordan was credited with four sacks, six tackles, and a pass deflection on the Thanksgiving Day nightcap.<\/p>\n

And his best play of the day sealed the win for New Orleans. Jordan sacked Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan for a fourth time on fourth down. Holding onto a 26-18 lead with the possibility of overtime in play, Jordan rushed off the left side and got past rookie first-round pick Kaleb McGary. Ryan never saw him coming, and Jordan brought the QB down for a turnover on downs with just seconds remaining. Drew Brees kneeled to run out the clock and the Saints won the day, and a division championship, too. You can see that highlight and all of Jordan’s big plays here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
