Jordyn Tyson's first NFL training camp started quietly. As of the team's last two practices, the New Orleans Saints' top draft pick is beginning to show why the team selected him No. 8 overall in the 2026 NFL Draft.
Tyson has noticeably increased his involvement over the Saints' last two practices, creating a lot of separation and becoming a more frequent target for Tyler Shough. After spending much of the offseason program on a carefully managed workload, the rookie is starting to look more comfortable within the offense.
Saturday was Tyson's best practice yet. Shough and the rookie connected several times, including a catch along the sideline after Tyson created considerable separation against Quincy Riley. He dragged both feet in bounds to complete the play.
Tyson carried that momentum into Sunday's practice, continuing to generate opportunities with the first-team offense. The growing comfort between him and Shough is an encouraging development after their limited time together during OTAs and mandatory minicamp.
Head coach Kellen Moore has primarily used Tyson from the slot while increasing his workload, but the Saints plan to expose him to more snaps on the outside. Now, as the training wheels come off, Tyson is beginning to provide a glimpse of the playmaking ability New Orleans envisioned when they made him a top-10 pick.
