Part of what makes the NFL draft such a compelling spectacle is the raw emotion that unfolds in real time. The human element of it all can often get lost in the picks and projections, but the moment a name is called, a life changes instantly. Former Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson is the latest member of the black and gold to get that special phone call.
We watch players embrace their family members as years of sacrifice and hard work finally culminate in a single, defining moment. It serves as a powerful reminder that behind every selection is a unique journey — one shaped by adversity and an unwavering commitment to reaching this stage. With Tyson becoming the newest member of the New Orleans Saints, let’s take a look at the heartfelt moment he received the call informing him of his selection.
