5 min readNews and Ranking Changes: Injuries Mount as Preseason Begins
The first week of preseason football is in the books, and the injury report is already piling up. Saints rookie wide receiver Jordyn Tyson pulled his right hamstring in a joint practice against the Jaguars—the same right hamstring that gave him problems in his final college season. He's now seeking multiple opinions, and as Evan Silva noted, "if they were to predict right now, [he] will not play in week one."

Adam Levitan has dropped Tyson to 84th overall in half-PPR rankings, while Silva sits at 72nd.
