Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) is out for the next two months with a hamstring injury he suffered in training camp. (Source: Mike Garafolo on X)
Fantasy Impact: It’s a tough blow to the Saints, who were hopeful to have their full complement of weapons to start the year. The timeline puts Tyson returning near the middle of October, and expect a ramp-up period for him once he returns. For those who haven’t drafted yet, expect his ADP to fall dramatically as he will be unusable foe the first several weeks of the season, if not longer.
