Cameron Jordan's storied tenure with the New Orleans Saints could be coming to an end.

The 36-year-old defensive end won't receive a new deal from the Saints and will hit free agency for the first time in his NFL career, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Jordan is open to leaving New Orleans and playing elsewhere, Schefter adds.

The Saints' all-time leader in games played recently said he wasn't looking for top dollar in a new deal but wanted to be valued correctly when inking a contract.

"If you get a 10-sack season, if I was 26, I'd be asking for top dollar," Jordan said, according to NFL.com's Bobby Kownack. "Things I've never asked for is top dollar. All I've ever asked for is to be valued."

The eight-time Pro Bowler has spent his entire 15-year NFL career in New Orleans, accumulating 132 sacks, including 10.5 last season.

He was a first-team All-Pro in 2017, finishing fourth in defensive player of the year voting.
