Look beyond the sacks, you'll see Saints DE Cameron Jordan has 'the glow'

ESPN Staff Writer Mike Triplett

METAIRIE, La. -- If defensive ends are measured by sacks, then Cameron Jordan might not make it to his third career Pro Bowl this season.

That would be too bad, though, because the New Orleans Saints defensive end is probably having one of the best two seasons of his career.

Although Jordan has “just” five sacks, his 17 quarterback hits, 12 tackles for loss and four batted passes put him in the top eight in the NFL in each of those categories.

The scouting service Pro Football Focus ranked Jordan’s performances in Week 10 and Week 11 as two of the nine best performances by edge defenders in any games this season, tucked in between multiple performances by Von Miller and Khalil Mack.

And Jordan’s 639 snaps (roughly 90 percent of the Saints’ defensive snaps) rank fourth among NFL defensive linemen.

“He’s one of those guys, you can’t really put a finger on it, but that guy has ‘the glow,’” veteran defensive end Darryl Tapp said. “And the numbers don’t really depict how good of a player he’s been this year, how much he’s meant to our team, to our defense. But real people that understand football ... they understand what that guy brings to the table. And I guarantee that offenses week in and week out gotta prepare for No. 94.”

That was a quote from Darryl Tapp. He said he has the "glow".

Everything aside, it's a nice article about Jordan. Hes been pretty damn good this year. Solid. Hope he can get out there and get some sacks against Detroit.

Only complaint is that he seems to always be slow to get going every season.
