Cameron Jordan has been feted with plenty of honors during his football career.
The former Cal star is a six-time Pro Bowl selection, was named first-team All-Pro in 2017 and was chosen to the NFL’s 2010 All-Decade Team.
And now . . . the New Orleans Saints’ defensive end has been named to the Senior Bowl Hall of Fame.
To which we had two immediate reactions:
1) Congratulations, Cam
2) The Senior Bowl has a Hall of Fame?
Yep, apparently this has been a thing since 1988, and the inductees over those three-plus decades include the likes of Joe Namath, Mean Joe Green, Walter Payton, Bo Jackson and Brett Favre.

Congrats are in order for former San Francisco 49ers left tackle Joe Staley. On Thursday, the Reese s Senior Bowl announced it will induct five new members into the game s Hall of Fame, including the 49ers legend.
Staley played in the Senior Bowl back in 2007 prior to being drafted by the 49ers 28th-overall later that spring. Being invited to play in the Senior Bowl was a huge deal for me coming out of Central Michigan, Staley said in a statement from the Senior Bowl press release. It offered me an opportunity to compete against the very best in the country and show what I could do as a player. It is a great honor to be selected to the Senior Bowl Hall of Fame among so many other athletes that I look up to and have competed with or against over the years.
