Jordyn Tyson vs CLE — Rookie wideout closing in on regular-season debut

Tyson remains out this week as he continues his recovery from a severe preseason hamstring injury that landed him on injured reserve. While he hasn't made his NFL debut yet, New Orleans is evaluating whether to open his practice window this week, with optimism that the first-round pick could return to game action as early as next week.

Our weekly projection expects zero fantasy points this week, so fantasy managers must keep him benched or in an IR slot. Nevertheless, he is rostered in 66% of leagues as an appealing stash who is listed atop the depth chart opposite Chris Olave. Check back often for the latest news and practice updates on his timeline.

Deebo Samuel Sr. Ruled Out Against Raiders as Hamstring Recovery Continues

Samuel remains out for Week 9 as he continues his recovery from a mid-October hamstring strain. Prior to the injury, the veteran playmaker had compiled 16 receptions for 206 yards and three touchdowns across five games, operating as a core weapon across the formation in Kyle Shanahan's offense.

With our weekly projection assigning him zero points, fantasy managers must keep him parked on benches for this matchup against Las Vegas. Rostered in over 83% of leagues, Samuel remains a valuable stash, so be sure to check back often for the latest news and practice updates regarding a potential Week 10 return.
