Sagging tire, can it be saved?

Guys,
I searched for this but couldn't find anything... I have a 9.00-20 wheel and tire that came off the spare tire carrier of a six-ton shop trailer. The tire has lots of tread left and no weathering or sun damage that I can see, but it is deformed from hanging at zero PSI on the spare tire mount for some time and sagging under its own weight.

Before I go to the trouble of disassembling the tire and wheel and putting in a new inner tube and flap, I was wondering, can this tire be saved? Will it be permanentally deformed? Is it safe to use a tire such as this?

I will try to take a picture and post it, but maybe my description of the tire is good enough.

Thanks,
Matt
