What Happened & Who’s in Custody

  • Jordan’s wife discovered the break‑in after returning home; the home had been entered while the family was away.  
  • Jefferson Parish Sheriff Joseph Lopinto confirmed that two suspects have been arrested: Jadon Brown (19) and Donald Robinson (28).  
  • Two other suspects remain at large: Jahaun Suber (20) and Devell Ortiz (19). Authorities are working with federal partners to apprehend them.  
  • Detectives say the burglary involved a rental vehicle traced back to Georgia, and that some of the stolen property has been recovered.  

This Fits a Pattern: Athletes Targeted During Games

  • Jordan’s case is the fifth known burglary targeting NFL players during games — following previous incidents involving Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, Joe Burrow and others.  
  • Law enforcement officials believe these thefts are carefully timed using players’ schedules and social media cues to exploit when homes are most vulnerable.  
  • In response, the NFL has advised players to delay social media activity and strengthen home security measures.  

Jordan Speaks Out

Cam Jordan addressed the burglary on social media:

“Yah that Sunday sucked… the most important things, my family, was and is safe.” 

He also acknowledged the hit to his property but prioritized that no one was harmed. 

What to Monitor Next

  • The exact list and value of stolen items, which authorities have not yet made public
  • Whether charges will be upgraded or include federal counts (e.g., interstate theft)
  • If connections emerge between this burglary and other athlete break-ins
  • How the recovery process goes, and whether any additional suspects will be arrested soon
  • Further security protocols or preventive measures adopted by teams, leagues, or players
