Cameron Jordan Eyeing Broncos, Payton's Old Saint

On March 31st, the Broncos are buzzing about signing Cameron Jordan in this second wave

of 2026 NFL free agency.

The 37-year-old defensive in from the Saints is still on the market after they couldn't

work out a deal.

With 132 career sacks and a Hall of Fame resume, he's drawing eyes in Denver, especially

since Sean Payton drafted him back in two.

2011.

Earlier this week, reports heated up linking Jordan to the Broncos training center.

They just lost veteran John Franklin Myers to a big contract with the Titans, leaving

a gap on the edge after a strong 2025 season that nearly took them to the Super Bowl.

Fans and analysts love the Payton connection.

Jordan was the heart of his defenses in New Orleans for over a decade.

Even at his age, he balled out last year with 10.5 sacks in all 17 games, showing he can

still disrupt in a rotational role without needing heavy snaps.

Jordan's eyeing a spot that values his position flexibility for key third downs, and market

talk points to a cheap one-year deal that fits Denver's.

Cap space perfectly, he's holding out to see how the draft shakes up before deciding.

For Payton, grabbing his old saying could lock down the defense around Bonix and push

this squad over the top right now.
