New Orleans Saints rookie Jordyn Tyson is making progress from a hamstring injury, but his return is still weeks away.

Patient Approach

New Orleans Saints rookie wide receiver Jordyn Tyson is making progress and feeling good, but he is still considered to be weeks away from returning to action. Tyson has been on injured reserve after suffering another hamstring injury. The Saints are taking a patient, long term approach with him.

Tyson is not likely to return until Week 7 at the earliest. A Week 7 return would present some logistical complications, because the Saints are scheduled to play the Pittsburgh Steelers that week in Paris. New Orleans has a bye in Week 8 before a home game in Week 9 against the Cleveland Browns.

Recovery Timeline

With the bye in Week 8, a potential Week 9 return might be the most logical course of action for the first round pick. It would give an additional couple of weeks of rest for Tyson, who has had a history of hamstring injuries. The Saints have been intentionally deliberate with him.

There will be medical checkpoints for Tyson to clear soon, and the team is pleased with where he is at in his recovery. Tyson was the eighth overall pick in this year's NFL draft. He suffered a right hamstring injury on August 13 during a joint training camp practice with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
