Cameron Jordan may miss season opener against Detroit Lions

Summary

The Detroit Lions prepare for their Week 1 game against the New Orleans Saints on September 13 at Ford Field. Saints coach Kellen Moore indicated that defensive end Cameron Jordan might be sidelined due to a hamstring injury. Jordan, an eight-time Pro Bowler, played all 17 games last season and led his team with 10.5 sacks. His absence could benefit Lions quarterback Jared Goff and the offensive line. The Saints are already dealing with injuries, including defensive tackle Bryan Bresee, who is out for the season. The Lions also have injury concerns, as safety Kerby Joseph is recovering and could miss the game.
