Saints' Rookie WR Tyson Out 2 Months With Hamstring Injury

The injury occurred when Tyson caught a pass, slipped, and received contact from behind during a joint practice against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Head coach Kellen Moore clarified that this hamstring injury is unrelated to previous issues Tyson managed during his collegiate career at Colorado and Arizona State, where he missed 17 games due to various injuries including a severe knee tear, collarbone fracture, and previous hamstring strains. truewildslot.com

Despite his injury history, Tyson had an impressive final collegiate season, earning first-team All-Big 12 and third-team AP All-American honors after recording 61 receptions for 711 yards and eight touchdowns across nine games. With his expected absence through August and September, Tyson could begin the season on short-term Injured Reserve as the Saints prepare to open their season against the Detroit Lions on September 13.
