Saints' Rookie WR Tyson to Miss 2 Months

Saints rookie wide receiver Jordyn Tyson is expected to miss approximately two months with a hamstring injury sustained during practice last week.

The first-round draft pick's availability for the start of the regular season is in serious doubt as he begins rehabilitation. The injury occurred during a joint practice against the Jacksonville Jaguars when Tyson caught a pass, slipped, and received contact from behind.

Head coach Kellen Moore clarified this hamstring injury is unrelated to previous issues during Tyson's collegiate career at Colorado and Arizona State, where he missed 17 games total. Despite the injury setback, the 2024 first-team All-Big 12 selection could begin the season on Injured Reserve, with the Saints opening their season against the Detroit Lions on Sept. 13. milkshake.it.com
