Cam Jordan Earns $600K Contract Bonus After Wild Cam Ward Throw Overturned on Video

There may never be a more valuable replay assist in Cameron Jordan's life than the one that happened Sunday during a game between his New Orleans Saints and the Tennessee Titans.

Replay assist overturned a fourth-down conversion from Titans quarterback Cam Ward and ruled it a sack for Jordan, per Saints insider Mike Triplett. As a result, the veteran pass-rusher picked up his ninth sack of the season, which is the mark he needed to earn a $600,000 incentive on his contract.

While it has largely been a season to forget for the Saints, Jordan has once again been a bright spot.

Frankly, the entire end of the season has been something of a bright spot for the organization.

Even at 6-10 and outside of the playoff picture, New Orleans has won four in a row thanks to Sunday's 34-26 victory over the Titans. Jordan has been a major part of that, as he notched two sacks in a Week 16 win over the New York Jets and another sack in Sunday's effort.

It was a strong push to reach his incentive number and gives him some leverage should he seek a new contract during the upcoming offseason in free agency. There has been speculation the 36-year-old could retire, but he is still playing at a high level down the stretch of the campaign.

Should he decide to return, it would be shocking to see him in any uniform outside of the Saints.

Jordan is a franchise legend and has surpassed the elevated expectations that were in place when New Orleans selected him with a first-round pick in the 2011 NFL draft. His resume includes eight Pro Bowl selections and six different seasons with double-digit sack totals.

He is the franchise's all-time leader in total sacks and added to the total Sunday.

If he plays well against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 18, he could have yet another season with double-digit sacks.
