Saints rookie Jordyn Tyson's NFL debut delayed until at least Week 9
General Manager Mickey Loomis said the receiver will miss practice in Paris before the Steelers game and gave no timetable for his return.
Saints receiver Jordyn Tyson will remain sidelined through the team's matchup with the Steelers, leaving Week 9 as his earliest opportunity to make his NFL debut. General Manager Mickey Loomis said Tyson would not take part in practices in Paris before the Steelers game.
The first-round selection has been out with a hamstring injury suffered in mid-August. Head coach Kellen Moore has said the injury is separate from the hamstring problems Tyson experienced during his college career.
Speaking to reporters at a press conference, Loomis said the rookie's condition was improving and indicated that a return was getting closer. He did not give a timetable for Tyson to get back on the field.
The Saints' Week 8 bye means Tyson's next possible chance to join the lineup is their home matchup against the Browns in Week 9. His availability for that game remains uncertain.
