There have been a lot of New Orleans Saints franchise legends and mainstays make their ways out of town in the last few years, but at least one name has remained a constant: Cameron Jordan.
This past season was Jordan’s 14th season with the Saints and unfortunately, it was one of his weakest. It is understandable, given that he is 35, that some regression has started to hit. He played a career-low 48% of snaps last year and didn’t really make an impact until late in the season.
Jordan finished the year with 34 tackles, seven for a loss and four sacks. Though those numbers don’t jump off the page, his contract numbers certainly do.
This is how much the veteran defensive end made this season, according to the experts with OverTheCap:
Cameron Jordan 2024-2025 salary
Jordan signed a two-year, $26.5 million contract extension back in August of 2023 that will keep him in New Orleans through the end of 2025.
His base salary in 2024 was $1,210,000. His total cap hit amounted to $13,852,250, though when accounting for the prorated signing bonus of $12,642,250.
How much will Cameron Jordan make next season?
His base salary will be $12,500,000 and then his prorated signing bonus of $7,561,000 will push his cap hit to $20,061,000. That’s second-highest on the team, and it’s clear a decision is coming on what to do about it.
