New Orleans Saints wide receiver Jordyn Tyson will be activated off injured reserve before Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns, according to NOF's Nick Underhill.

Tyson was selected 8th overall in the 2026 NFL Draft out of Arizona State and hasn't played this season yet due to a hamstring injury. He suffered the ailment in training camp and was projected to miss around two months.

The 22-year-old was the second wide receiver taken in the draft behind Carnell Tate, whom the Tennessee Titans selected with the fourth pick.

Tyson dealt with injuries in his final year of college and played in only nine games. His best season came in 2024, when he recorded 75 catches for 1,101 yards and 10 touchdowns.

New Orleans' offense has struggled to produce consistently this season, ranking 23rd in success rate and 26th in yards per play heading into Sunday's slate, according to TruMedia.

The Saints are 2-5 and last in the NFC South.
