Jordyn Tyson

Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) will not return to practice this week.

Fantasy Impact

After being selected with the eighth-overall pick in this year's draft, Tyson has yet to make his NFL debut due to a hamstring injury. The rookie is progressing, but he is still not ready to get back on the practice field. Devaughn Vele and Chris Olave will continue to lead the Saints' WR corps.

Saints coach Kellen Moore said, “not right now" when asked if Jordyn Tyson could practice this week.

Moore adds that Tyson is “progressing well." He remains week-to-week for now.

Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) is still considered “weeks away” from returning from IR due to his hamstring injury, despite being eligible to return at the conclusion of Week 4. It appears Week 7 is the earliest we could see him return, but the Saints bye is the following week, so Week 9 is sounding more realistic.

Fantasy Impact

It’s a tough blow for Tyson’s stock and for fantasy managers who have held on to him this long. Tyson has loads of promise and could unlock something for a Saints offense that’s already looking good. However, we will have to wait several more weeks to see him on the field, and in his absence, Juwan Johnson and Devaughn Vele will continue to be viable starts.

The Saints placed Jordyn Tyson on injured reserve.

Fantasy Impact

Tyson is expected to miss roughly two months with a hamstring injury. He has been dealing with hamstring issues since college at Arizona State.
