Jordyn Tyson’s Draft Stock Slips as Hamstring Limits Pre-Draft Workouts

An April 17 teams-only workout will be his chance to answer medical doubts.

Overview

  • ESPN’s Matt Miller reports Tyson is trending in the wrong direction, with several scouts warning he could slide to the back half of the first round and some ranking him as their No. 4 receiver.
  • A lingering hamstring kept him out of combine drills and a full pro day, so he set a limited positional workout for NFL teams on April 17 to show readiness.
  • Teams are weighing a long injury file that includes a major knee tear in 2022, a broken collarbone in 2024, and a hamstring that lingered through 2025.
  • Pittsburgh is cited as a team still interested if medicals clear, suggesting a slide could create a value pick for a receiver-needy contender.
  • Wide receiver is deep in this class, and when prospects skip verified testing, clubs lean more on medicals and private looks, a shift that often pushes injury-risk players down boards.
