Saints HC Kellen Moore said Jordyn Tyson had a scheduled rest day for Saturday’s minicamp.

Speaking with the media, Moore said Tyson’s rest day was part of “putting together a plan for him,” and not a new injury. The Saints selected Tyson with the No. 8 overall pick in this year’s draft, choosing to bet on his talent while casting aside any concerns over his well-documented injury history. The rookie receiver dealt with hamstring injuries in 2025 and was also sidelined for most of the pre-draft process due to hamstring injuries, so Moore and his staff are hoping to find ways to mitigate those concerns at the pro level. It’s never great to hear that a 21-year-old rookie is already having scheduled rest days, but hopefully this decision plays out well ahead of training camp and once the season starts. Tyson has a chance to make an immediate impact for the Saints and his fantasy managers if he can stay healthy.
