Saints | Jordyn Tyson starts rookie season on IR Mon Aug 31, 12:48 AM
New Orleans Saints WR Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) was placed on the reserve/injured list Sunday, Aug. 30, with a designation to return. He will miss a minimum of four games as he recovers from a hamstring injury suffered early in training camp.
| Footballguys view: Tyson suffered a right hamstring injury during training camp this offseason, so this outcome was not unexpected. A return by the Week 5 matchup against the Vikings would be ideal, but not guaranteed. For what it's worth, this injury is apparently unrelated to his hamstring issue at Arizona State. With Tyson out, the Saints will rely on a wide receiver group consisting of Chris Olave and Devaughn Vele. Rookies Barion Brown and Bryce Lance will have an opportunity to prove themselves right away, while Kevin Austin Jr. sits at the end of the depth chart. |

New Orleans Saints RB Devin Neal (hamstring) could start the regular season on the Reserve/Injured list after recently suffering a hamstring injury, in the opinion of ESPN.com's Katherine Terrell.
| Footballguys view: Neal is a talented reserve back, but injuries have prevented him from playing up to his potential. He needs to get healthy, stay healthy, and show why the team has him as a developmental back behind guys like Travis Etienne and Alvin Kamara. |

New Orleans Saints RB Ty Chandler (knee) is expected to miss the 2026 NFL season, according to Saints HC Kellen Moore on Tuesday, Aug, 25.
| Footballguys view: Chandler was not expected to play a large role for the Saints this season, but he was making a case for the 53-man roster before his injury. Chandler returned the opening kick of the Saints' first preseason game for 86 yards to set up a touchdown, and had flashed explosive running ability while working with the second- and third-team offenses during camp. They'll be looking for another return man now. |

Link to story Saints | Knee injury for Ty Chandler Mon Aug 24, 03:35 PM
New Orleans Saints RB Ty Chandler (knee) is believed to have suffered a serious knee injury during the last preseason game, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: As USA Today noted, the injury is especially concerning considering the growing number of issues in the team's backfield. Alvin Kamara is expected to miss time with a sprained MCL, while Devin Neal is dealing with a hamstring injury. Kendre Miller also just recently returned after missing time with a back issue. New Orleans did add some insurance Sunday night by acquiring veteran RB Zamir White from the San Francisco 49ers in exchange for linebacker Deion Jones. The move had already made sense given the team's injury situation, but Chandler's potentially significant absence makes the additional depth even more important. |
Saints | Daniel Carlson headed to NOLA Mon Aug 24, 11:02 AM
Free-agent PK Daniel Carlson (Raiders) agreed to an undisclosed deal with the New Orleans Saints Monday, Aug. 24.
| Footballguys view: Tanner Brown and Charlie Smyth have been vying for the kicker spot in New Orleans. Brown missed a field goal in Saturday's shutout loss to the Rams, and Smyth missed one in the preseason opener. Brown was 2-of-2 on field goals in that game while Smyth made both extra points he attempted. Carlson spent the last eight seasons with the Raiders. He was 224-of-255 on field goals and 238-of-249 on extra points for the AFC West club. |

Saints | New Orleans acquiring Zamir White Mon Aug 24, 12:04 AM
New Orleans Saints LB Deion Jones is being traded to the San Francisco 49ers in exchange for RB Zamir White, according to sources
| Footballguys view: The Saints needed running back help with Alvin Kamara out at least a month with an MCL sprain. Devin Neal (hamstring) and Kendre Miller (back) have also missed time in camp with injuries. The 49ers signed White on Aug. 12 as they dealt with backfield injuries of their own. Christian McCaffrey returned to practice on Sunday. |

Saints | Devin Neal tweaks hamstring Sun Aug 23, 10:37 AM
New Orleans Saints RB Devin Neal (hamstring) suffered a hamstring injury during the preseason game against the Los Angeles Rams Saturday, Aug. 22.
| Footballguys view: With Alvin Kamara out, Neal had a chance to assert himself as the backup to Travis Etienne for the time being, but instead suffered his second hamstring injury of the summer. Kendre Miller saw his first game action in almost a year and is set to be the #2 back for the moment with Audric Estime also out. This situation remains in flux behind Etienne with three weeks until the season opener at Detroit. |

New Orleans Saints RB Audric Estime (ankle) has a good chance to make the 53-man roster if he is able to recover from his injury, in the opinion of SaintsWire's John Sigler.
| Footballguys view: With Alvin Kamara (knee) out for around a month, the Saints are looking to establish a pecking order for reserve backs behind starter Travis Etienne. Estime finished last year strong with the Saints, and he brings more power to the field than the other backs on the roster. He's competing with guys like Kendre Miller and Devin Neal when healthy. |

Saints | Alvin Kamara out a month Wed Aug 19, 10:02 AM
Updating previous reports, New Orleans Saints RB Alvin Kamara (knee) suffered a sprained medial collateral ligament, and he's expected to be out at least a month.
| Footballguys view: Travis Etienne's fantasy stock took a hit when Kamara and the Saints agreed on terms for him to stay with the team this season, but this opens a door for the free agent addition to assert himself as the lead back while Kamara mends. If you were on Etienne because of Kamara's age and recent injury history, then you should feel vindicated by this development. Etienne could climb back into the third round on this news. |

Saints | Jordyn Tyson likely to miss extended time Tue Aug 18, 12:26 AM
New Orleans Saints WR Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) is expected to be sidelined for around two months because of a hamstring injury. He could be a candidate for the short-term Reserve/Injured list.
| Footballguys view: The Saints will be able to designate him as eligible to return if they wait to put him on the reserve list until the cut to 53 players later this month. If he does go on injured reserve, he will have to miss at least four games before returning to action. As Profootballtalk.com suggests, it's a big blow to a Saints offense that was hoping to pair Tyson with Chris Olave to give quarterback Tyler Shough a pair of dangerous receiving threats in his first full season as a starter. |

Saints | Jordyn Tyson's current injury unrelated to old issue Sat Aug 15, 02:24 PM
Updating a previous report, New Orleans Saints WR Jordyn Tyson's (hamstring) current hamstring injury is not related to hamstring issues that he experienced last year while playing for Arizona State, according to head coach Kellen Moore.
| Footballguys view: We have some clarity on this hamstring injury, which is good since Tyson missed the NFL Combine due to the college hamstring injury. NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reports that Tyson is seeking multiple opinions on his recent injury. We'll now see how much time it takes to recover from this latest hamstring problem - and if he can avoid further issues. Tyson has a current ADP of WR48 (8.01) in 12-team PPR leagues. |

Saints | Jordyn Tyson hamstring issue could linger Fri Aug 14, 03:29 PM
New Orleans Saints WR Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) will miss time, and the injury could linger into the season, according to head coach Kellen Moore.
| Footballguys view: That Moore is allowing for the possibility of this injury keeping Tyson out four weeks - the amount of time until Week 1 - is discouraging. Hopefully the team is just being extra cautious with Tyson because of how long it took for to recover from his last right hamstring injury. Moore said this injury is not a recurrence of the previous injury, but that is small solace. Devaughn Vele and Juwan Johnson would pick up the slack in the passing game for any time that Tyson misses. |

Saints | Spencer Rattler to start for New Orleans Thu Aug 13, 01:30 PM
New Orleans Saints QB Spencer Rattler will start the team's preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Saturday, Aug. 15, according to head coach Kellen Moore.
| Footballguys view: The Saints have Tyler Shough as their starter, and he's played good football for them. Rattler was once thought of as a potential starter, but now it seems like he'll settle in as a backup in the pros. |

Saints | Jordyn Tyson leaves practice Thu Aug 13, 01:27 PM
New Orleans Saints WR Jordyn Tyson left practice with an apparent leg injury and did not return on Thursday, Aug. 13.
| Footballguys view: Reports are indicating this is a hamstring injury, but it's said to be not serious. That sounds great, but we're also dealing with a rookie receiver that has been limited by a hamstring injury since the NFL Scouting Combine. Tyson has incredible upside in the pros, but his rookie season may not get off to a hot start if he can't shake this hamstring issue. |
