Saints Set Wednesday Decision on Jordyn Tyson
The New Orleans Saints plan to decide on November 4 whether to activate injured rookie receiver Jordyn Tyson, who has been sidelined since August.
Published November 2, 2026. New Orleans is expected to decide on November 4 whether Jordyn Tyson can return from injured reserve, coach Kellen Moore said. The first-round rookie has been unavailable since August because of a Grade 2 strain in his right hamstring. His return could come as soon as this week’s game against the Cleveland Browns.
The Saints selected Tyson eighth overall in the 2026 NFL Draft after he played at Arizona State. Across the 2024 and 2025 seasons, he caught 136 passes for 1,812 yards and 18 touchdowns. He also played for Colorado in 2022, recording 22 receptions, 470 yards and four touchdowns.
New Orleans has a 2-5 record and sits last in the NFC South. The division remains close: Carolina is 3-4 and leads, while Tampa Bay and Atlanta are each 3-5. Tyson’s possible availability would give the Saints another option at receiver as they try to improve their position. The team’s next step is to make the activation decision on Wednesday.
