Cameron Jordan, Tyrann Mathieu debut bold new hairstyles at Saints minicamp
A couple of New Orleans Saints veterans made their 2025 debuts in reporting for work at Tuesday's mandatory minicamp practice -- and two of them were sporting bold new hairstyles. Change is nothing new for Cameron Jordan, who has had some fun with his NFL-mandated headshot each season over the years, but his new platinum locks inspired by HBO's "House of the Dragon" series are something else. Jordan started binging the popular "Game of Thrones" spinoff this summer and picked up some fashion tips along the way. "I wanted to be a Velaryon," Jordan told reporters after practice, referring to one of the noble houses known for their distinctive bleach-blonde hair. "And I was like, 'You know what, this guy. This guy's got something going on.' Now granted, I thought I'd do the beard, too, but I didn't like the way the fumes was rising. So I kept it exactly how I wanted to. I think this is me. I'll see how long it lasts." But Jordan wasn't the only Saints veteran switching it up. Tyrann Mathieu has worn dreads for most of his 12-year NFL career, but he cut them off back earlier this spring. Speaking with reporters at his locker, he joked that "I was trying to shave some years off" before celebrating his 33rd birthday in May. Maybe the change can help him. Mathieu has intercepted 36 passes in his NFL career, trailing only Harrison Smith (37) for the most among active players. He wants that title for himself, and if a fresh cut puts a spring in his step, then so be it.

Shad Khan: Jaguars will have a GM by end of February
The Jaguars fired General Manager Trent Baalke as a prelude for hiring new head coach Liam Coen. Now the work on finding Baalke's replacement begins. Jaguars owner Shad Khan said at Monday's press conference introducing Coen that the next GM of the Jaguars may not be hired until the end of next month. 'I think that date is February 28, I believe that's the NFL-mandated. Our priority is to get Liam settled in and have him build his staff, and then start the search. But we're hoping to be done by that date,' Khan said, via News 4 in Jacksonville. The NFL Scouting Combine begins on February 27, so that's around when the new GM will be ready to go in Jacksonville. It's clear that Khan plans to hire someone who can work with Coen, as concerns Coen had about Baalke appear to have played a part in Baalke's departure. Coen and a new GM will be tasked with rebuilding a team that has fallen well short of expectations since drafting Trevor Lawrence.
