Throughout much of the pre-draft process, Arizona State\u2019s Jordyn Tyson has been considered among the top wide receivers in the 2026 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n
That conversation might be changing just a bit now.<\/p>\n
With 20 days until the NFL Draft in Pittsburgh, Tyson\u2019s injury history and the lack of work he\u2019s done in the pre-draft process for teams has his stock reportedly falling.<\/p>\n
According to ESPN\u2019s Matt Miller, Tyson is one player who is \u201ctrending in the wrong direction\u201d here in the final weeks before the draft.<\/p>\n
\u201cOne player trending in the wrong direction leading up to the draft is Arizona State receiver Jordyn Tyson,\u201d Miller writes.<\/a> \u201cIn reviewing my grades with a handful of scouts, many remarked that Tyson\u2019s hamstring injury\u00a0and lack of predraft workouts could cause him to slide to the back half of the first round.<\/p>\n \u201cThree scouts told me that Tyson ranks as the No. 4 receiver on their internal boards. He is scheduled to do positional work for NFL teams on April 17.\u201d<\/p>\n Tyson is a dynamic player, one who can create splash plays with the football in his hands, creating after the catch among the best of them in the draft.<\/a> The only issue is, he\u2019s struggled to stay on the field in recent seasons.<\/p>\n His medical history is long, and it led to plenty of teams paying close attention to the medical checks at the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine. The Pittsburgh Steelers did meet with Tyson at the Combine in a formal setting, and they might have some inside information on Tyson as a player and person due to former Steelers great Hines Ward serving as the Sun Devils\u2019 WRs coach.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n
