The New Orleans Saints could see first‑round pick wideout Jordyn Tyson back on the field as early as next Sunday’s matchup with the Cleveland Browns, according to NFL insider Adam Schefter. Tyson, drafted eighth overall and sidelined by a hamstring strain, has missed the team’s 2‑5 start. His return would boost a struggling offense that has relied heavily on Chris Olave and quarterback Tyler Shough. The Saints remain in the NFC South race despite the division’s overall weakness, and hope Tyson makes his NFL debut against Cleveland.

Browns legend Hanford Dixon warns Cleveland to give Deshaun Watson a "hometown discount" despite his 2026 resurgence. After a tumultuous four-year stretch marked by a suspension, a shoulder fracture and two Achilles tears, Watson has posted 1,482 yards and seven TDs in seven games, propelling the Browns to a 5-2 AFC North lead. Dixon says his injury history, not his play, justifies a modest $20 million offer and doubts the franchise will commit guaranteed money as Watson enters the final year of his $230 million deal.
The Bears clinched four-time Pro Bowler Jeffery Simmons by using the recent Myles Garrett trade as a pricing template. After GM Ryan Poles re‑contacted Titans GM Mike Borgonzi, both clubs referenced Cleveland’s deal—Jared Verse plus three picks—for Garrett, valuing Verse as a first‑round pick. Chicago then sent its 2027 and 2028 first‑rounders and a 2027 fourth‑rounder to Tennessee, receiving Simmons and a 2028 fifth‑round pick. The move gives Chicago an elite interior lineman while the Titans gain premium draft capital for their rebuild.
The Cleveland Browns' decision to trade star pass-rusher Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams this past offseason reportedly set off a process that ended with the Chicago Bears acquiring defensive lineman Jeffery Simmons from the Tennessee Titans.
