With first-round pick Jordyn Tyson sidelined due to a hamstring injury, the Saints tried out veteran WRs Chase Claypool Via @AdamSchefter on X

What happened: The New Orleans Saints hosted veteran wide receivers Chase Claypool and Josh Reynolds for tryouts. The auditions follow a hamstring injury that has sidelined first-round pick Jordyn Tyson.

Why it matters: Evaluating experienced pass-catchers gives New Orleans immediate depth options at the position. Signing a veteran would stabilize the receiving rotation during preseason preparations.

What to watch: The Saints will decide whether to sign either veteran receiver ahead of the 2026 regular season.
