A couple of New Orleans Saints<\/a> veterans made their 2025 debuts in reporting for work at Tuesday’s mandatory minicamp practice — and two of them were sporting bold new hairstyles. Change is nothing new for Cameron Jordan, who has had some fun with<\/a> his NFL-mandated headshot<\/a> each season over the years<\/a>, but his new platinum locks inspired by HBO’s “House of the Dragon” series are something else. Jordan started binging the popular “Game of Thrones” spinoff this summer and picked up some fashion tips along the way.<\/p>\n

“I wanted to be a Velaryon,” Jordan told reporters after practice<\/a>, referring to one of the noble houses known for their distinctive bleach-blonde hair. “And I was like, ‘You know what, this guy. This guy’s got something going on.’ Now granted, I thought I’d do the beard, too, but I didn’t like the way the fumes was rising. So I kept it exactly how I wanted to. I think this is me. I’ll see how long it lasts.”<\/p>\n

But Jordan wasn’t the only Saints veteran switching it up. Tyrann Mathieu has worn dreads for most of his 12-year NFL career, but he cut them off back earlier this spring<\/a>. Speaking with reporters at his locker, he joked that “I was trying to shave some years off<\/a>” before celebrating his 33rd birthday in May. Maybe the change can help him. Mathieu has intercepted 36 passes in his NFL career, trailing only Harrison Smith (37) for the most among active players. He wants that title for himself, and if a fresh cut puts a spring in his step, then so be it.<\/p>\n
