Jordyn Tyson scheduled a workout for NFL teams six days before the 2026 NFL Draft as the Arizona State wide receiver attempts to answer questions about his health, according to multiple reports.

The April 17 workout became necessary because Tyson was nursing a hamstring injury that prevented him from taking the field for testing at the NFL Scouting Combine in February.

Initially projected as a first-round pick when he declared for the draft, Tyson could fall to the second round in a draft well-stocked with wide receivers.

He played in nine games last season and had 61 receptions for 711 yards and eight TDs while fighting the soft-tissue challenges. Tyson reeled in 75 passes for 1,101 yards and 10 touchdowns in 2024.

But his injury history isn't limited to his hamstrings. A transfer from Colorado, Tyson had MCL, ACL and PCL tears with the Buffaloes in 2022 and broke his collarbone in 2024.

There were 31 teams accounted for at the Arizona State pro day on March 27, but Tyson wasn't a participant.

He has smaller hands for his 6-foot-2, 203-pound frame and durability no doubt will be a factor as teams decide where Tyson falls on their draft board. A redshirt junior, Tyson turns 22 in August. He's the younger brother of 2024 NBA first-round pick Jaylon Tyson, who was selected 20th overall by the Cleveland Cavaliers.
