Jordyn Tyson Suffers Another Hamstring Injury, Casting Doubt on Saints Debut
Jordyn Tyson left Saints practice with a hamstring injury, raising serious concerns given his lengthy injury history.
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Jordyn Tyson, once touted as a top prospect in the 2026 NFL Draft, now faces uncertainty over his debut after suffering another hamstring injury. The injury forced Tyson to exit Saints practice early on Thursday. While Nick Underhill stated the injury isn't critical, the news has left a sour taste for Saints fans given the rookie's injury history.
Earlier this year, Tyson suffered a pair of Grade 2 hamstring strains during Arizona State's game against Texas Tech, missing the NFL Combine and Pro Day. He also battled a severe knee injury in 2022 that sidelined him for most of the 2023 season. Given Tyson's track record of hamstring injuries, the Saints will likely approach his recovery with caution.
The wide receiver is expected to miss the Saints' preseason opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Saturday, with his next opportunity to play arriving on Aug. 22 against the Los Angeles Rams.
