New Orleans Saints defensive end Cam Jordan doesn't want to go anywhere this offseason.

The franchise's sack leader made an appearance on FanDuel TV’s Up & Adams  on Wednesday morning with former teammate Mark Ingram.

Kay Adams brought up the Myles Garrett trade request from the Cleveland Browns and said that Jordan was the first person she thought about. He responded quickly that he isn't asking to be traded.

Jordan shut down any trade speculation, making his stance crystal clear with a response of, "I'm not asking for a trade anywhere. I'm black and gold forever.” 

Jordan proceeded to list reasons on why not New Orleans going into the new season? He said the Saints have the talent, but had health issues that they've faced consistently for the past three years. 

He also doubled down on his commitment to the Saints, adding, “Who has a better chance at winning (a championship) than us… We’ve got the talent.”

Jordan brought up Chris Olave, Derek Carr, Taliese Fuaga, Alvin Kamara and plenty of players that did things for New Orleans throughout the course of the season.

Obviously, the Saints are going to need to get a new head coach, which could come right after the Super Bowl. Jordan showed that he had plenty left in the tank after Dennis Allen was fired and saw his playing time increased.

Jordan is one of the top salary cap hits on the Saints going into the new league year, accounting for just over 7% of the total figure. He has a $23.985 million hit, which obviously New Orleans will have to navigate somehow.
