According to ESPN’s NFL Draft Insider Matt Miller, Arizona State WR Jordyn Tyson is trending in the wrong direction as draft boards begin to take final shape.

Once viewed as a potential mid-first round lock, Tyson’s stock has reportedly dipped due to durability concerns and a lack of participation in key pre-draft workouts. Jordyn Tyson is “trending in the wrong direction” leading up to the draft, per @nfldraftscout “Many scouts remarked that Tyson's hamstring injury and lack of predraft workouts could cause him to slide to the back half of the first round. ” pic.

Over his collegiate career, he emerged as a true playmaker—totaling over 2,400 receiving yards and 18 touchdowns while averaging nearly 16 yards per catch.

His blend of speed, body control, and route-running made him one of the most dangerous offensive weapons in the Pac-12. However, injuries have been a recurring issue. Tyson dealt with multiple lower-body injuries during his time in college, including a lingering hamstring strain and a missed stretch of games in his final season.
