Former Arizona State star Jordyn Tyson is still waiting to make his NFL debut. When will the Saints rookie WR get back on the field?
The wait for Saints wide receiver Jordyn Tyson to make his NFL debut will continue until at least Week 9
The wait for Saints wide receiver Jordyn Tyson to make his NFL debut will continue until at least Week 9. General Manager Mickey Loomis told reporters at a Wednesday press conference that the first-round pick will not practice with the team in Paris ahead of this Sunday’s game against the Steelers. Tyson has been out since suffering a hamstring injury in mid-August, although head coach Kellen Moore said that it was unrelated to previous hamstring issues while he was in college. Loomis said that the rookie is improving and “we feel like we’re getting closer,” but declined to offer a “specific timetable” for him to get on the field. The Saints have a bye in Week 8, so their Week 9 home game against the Browns will be the earliest possible date for Tyson to join the lineup. Given the length of his absence and history of hamstring issues, a longer ramp up time might be in the cards once Tyson does return to practice
The New Orleans Saints will face the New York Giants in Week 6 of the 2026 NFL season on Sunday. The Giants are off to a strong start despite a season-ending injury to quarterback Jaxson Dart but come in off a tie with the Commanders . New York had a chance at the victory in overtime but missed a field goal on its opening possession and then fumbled on a subsequent drive. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. ET at MetLife Stadium. Despite their recent struggles, the visitors are 1.5-point favorites in the Saints vs. Giants odds, and the Over/Under is 46.5.

The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up more than $5,000 for $100 players on betting sites on top-rated NFL picks since its inception. The model entered Week 6 of the 2026 NFL season on a 57-46 run on top-rated picks dating back to 2024. Anybody following its picks at NFL betting sites could have seen strong returns. New Orleans came into the 2026 season as a sleeper team after a strong finish to 2025. The Saints have not been fortunate on the injury front, with big free agent signing Travis Etienne still on IR and first-round pick Jordyn Tyson sidelined. Tyler Shough has amassed gaudy numbers, but that's largely because the team has been playing from behind. The Saints have not been great defensively, though they did hold their own last week against the Vikings . Shough was particularly poor against Minnesota's defense, throwing for less than 100 yards while also tossing two picks. He'll try to get back in form against a Giants defense that is allowing 21.2 points per game. Jameis Winston has taken over for Dart, and while he's had some reckless moments, the offense has been humming along. New York is averaging 21.8 points per game as Cam Skattebo , Malik Nabers and Isaiah Likely all chip in. Last week's tie has taken a lot of momentum away from the Giants, but they are still in first place in the NFC East entering Week 6. If Winston can play turnover-free football, New York should be able to move the ball against this New Orleans defense. Winston didn't throw an interception last week against the Commanders while tossing three touchdown passes.

New York should be more focused after giving away what was a win in Week 5, and the home crowd should help the Giants handle business on Sunday

The SportsLine Projection Model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up well over $7,000 for $100 players on betting sites on top-rated NFL picks since its inception. The model enters the 2026 NFL season on a 53-37 run on top-rated picks dating back to 2024. Anybody following its picks at NFL betting sites could have seen strong returns. New Orleans is hoping to build on its momentum from late in the 2025 campaign, and the team brings back most of its key players in Kellen Moore's offense. Tyler Shough returns at quarterback, Chris Olave headlines the receiver group and Juwan Johnson is one of the league's most underrated tight ends. There are some new faces, with Travis Etienne stepping in as the starting running back while rookie Jordyn Tyson will eventually work his way back to being the No. 2 receiver. The Lions have had one of the league's top scoring units for the last few seasons, but they limped to a 9-8 finish in 2025 after both their coordinators left for head coaching jobs.

These sides played a ridiculous overtime game in Week 2 last year, with Dallas winning 40-37. The Giants have John Harbaugh as their new head coach, and they'll hope their young core of Jaxson Dart , Cam Skattebo and Malik Nabers can stay healthy for the duration of the season.

Across 13 games in 2025, New Orleans Saints wide receiver Devaughn Vele recorded 25 catches for 293 yards and two touchdowns on 39 targets. The 28-year-old saw minimal usage early in the year, but his production picked up following the Saints' midseason trade of former wideout Rashid Shaheed to the Seattle Seahawks. With Saints rookie wide receiver Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) on Injured Reserve to begin the year, Vele could once again be the WR2 alongside Chris Olave in New Orleans. In Week 1, the Saints have a favorable matchup on paper against a Detroit Lions defense that will be without both starting safeties in Brian Branch (Achilles) and Kerby Joseph (knee). Across his final four games of 2025, Vele averaged over 12 PPR fantasy points per game. He profiles as an under-the-radar deep-league flex option in Week 1
New Orleans Saints quarterback Tyler Shough is one of the more interesting streaming options for Week 1 against Detroit. He settled in after taking over last season, throwing for 2,256 yards, 10 touchdowns and five interceptions across nine starts. The finish was especially encouraging. Over his final five games, Shough threw for 1,316 yards and five touchdowns while adding 135 yards and three scores on the ground. Detroit gave up 4,027 passing yards and 31 passing touchdowns in 2025, and starting safeties Brian Branch and Kerby Joseph will both miss the opener. That gives Shough a favorable spot with Chris Olave leading the passing game, even with rookie Jordyn Tyson on injured reserve. RotoBaller has Shough at QB16 for Week 1. He is not a locked-in QB1, but managers looking for a streamer can use him with real top-12 upside if this game turns into a shootout
Tyler Shough’s strong finish signals a promising rookie QB year, with solid passing and rushing numbers and a potential breakout beyond a matchup‑dependent role
Juwan Johnson has top-12 upside in New Orleans this year
