New Orleans Saints rookie wide receiver Jordyn Tyson is expected to miss approximately two months after sustaining a hamstring injury during a joint practice against the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to NFL Network. The injury means the first-round draft pick's availability for the start of the regular season is in serious doubt as he begins his rehabilitation program.

Head coach Kellen Moore clarified that this hamstring injury is unrelated to previous issues during Tyson's college career, where he missed 17 games due to various injuries. With Tyson expected to remain sidelined through August and into September, the Saints may place him on short-term Injured Reserve for the season opener against the Detroit Lions on Sept. 13. esporist.com
