Saints Rookie Jordyn Tyson Expected to Miss Two Months Due to Hamstring Injury

The New Orleans Saints will be without rookie wide receiver Jordyn Tyson for an estimated two months due to a hamstring injury he suffered during a training camp practice last week.

Tyson has been consulting with specialists and may start the season on injured reserve as he recovers. Although he has a history of hamstring issues from his time at Colorado and Arizona State, this injury is reported to be new and unrelated to previous problems.

This setback is significant for the Saints, who selected Tyson with the eighth overall pick in the NFL Draft. He was anticipated to form a strong receiving duo with Chris Olave. In Tyson's absence, DeVaughn Vele is likely to take on the No. 2 receiver role, while the team may also consider free-agent options or trades to bolster their receiving corps.
