New Orleans is hosting Jordan (knee) for a tryout Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jordan appears to have fully recovered from the knee injury he suffered January of 2021. The veteran defensive end hasn't logged any NFL action this season, but he could have a chance to latch on with the Saints.

Jordan (knee) is inactive for Saturday's matchup against Arizona.
EDGE Analysis
Jordan was considered doubtful heading into the weekend, and it's now confirmed that the 2013 No. 3 overall draft choice will miss his third game of the season. The 30-year-old hasn't sat out since Week 2, but this development means defensive end depth is going to be depleted behind starters Arik Armstead and Kerry Hyder.

Jordan (knee) is doubtful for Saturday's game versus the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
After practicing in a limited fashion Wednesday, Jordan sat out of Thursday's practice. He's on track to miss his first game since re-signing with the team ahead of Week 3. His absence leaves about 30 defensive snaps up for grabs; Dekoda Watson and Jordan Willis are candidates to see more work in Jordan's place.

Jordan (knee) is out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
After fielding his first start of the 2020 campaign last Sunday in a loss to Washington, Jordan will now be forced to a premature exit. The 2013 No. 3 overall draft choice stands one sack away from equaling his career high (four), but he'll only have two more opportunities to retake the field Weeks 16 and 17 against division rivals Arizona and Seattle.

Jordan recorded three tackles (one solo) and a sack across 49 defensive snaps in Sunday's loss to Washington.
EDGE Analysis
Jordan now has a sack in back-to-back contests after only recording one sack through the first 12 weeks of the season. Sunday also marked Jordan's highest single-game snap count of the year. Should he keep up this high level of play, look for the high rep count to remain.

The 49ers promoted Jordan from the practice squad to the active roster Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Jordan's promotion to the active roster coincides with the placement of both Nick Bosa (knee) and Solomon Thomas (knee) on injured reserve. The veteran will provide the 49ers with much-needed depth at defensive end, and he could play an immediate rotational role against the Giants on Sunday.

The 49ers released Jordan on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Jordan served a 10-game suspension last season and didn't make much of an impact when the Raiders signed him, as he recorded just five tackles over seven games. He was afforded plenty of opportunities, too, averaging 25.1 defensive snaps per contest.

Jordan agreed Friday with the 49ers on a one-year contract, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Joining a team that already has Nick Bosa, Dee Ford and Arik Armstead at defensive end, Jordan will merely be competing for a roster spot. The No. 3 overall pick from the 2013 NFL Draft has managed only 10.5 sacks and 50 NFL appearances to date, but he did notch a pair of sacks while playing for the Raiders over the final seven weeks of last season. Jordan turned 30 in March.
