Summary
Two months on the sideline would likely cost Jordyn Tyson at least five games, putting the Saints' first-round receiver on track to return around Week 6.
Thursday's joint practice with Jacksonville caused the injury when Tyson's foot slipped and he was shoved from behind, with coach Kellen Moore calling it a fluke rather than a recurrence of past hamstring trouble.
New Orleans had expected the 22-year-old Arizona State product to bolster Tyler Shough's offense after Tyson's 1,101-yard 2024 breakout and his selection at No. 8 in April.
The setback trims a revamped Saints attack that already features Chris Olave, Alvin Kamara and newcomer Travis Etienne Jr. on a four-year, $48 million deal.
