Saints activate rookie WR Jordyn Tyson, LT Kelvin Banks Jr. from IR ahead of Week 9 Browns game

The New Orleans Saints plan to activate wide receiver Jordyn Tyson and left tackle Kelvin Banks Jr. from injured reserve for Sunday's Week 9 game against the Cleveland Browns. Tyson, the No. 8 overall pick in the 2026 draft, is making his NFL debut after missing the first half of the season with a hamstring injury.
