Chris Olave Limited In Wednesday's Practice
1 year agoAfter suffering a concussion in the Week 12 loss to the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (concussion) was limited in the team's practice on Wednesday. Before leaving Sunday's contest, Olave was going off for seven receptions and 114 yards. Michael Thomas (knee) is on Injured Reserve and Rashid Shaheed (thigh) is unlikely to play after also getting hurt in Week 12, so the Saints could really use Olave out on the field this Sunday when they face the Detroit Lions. If Olave plays, he'll most likely see a lot of attention from Detroit's secondary, but he should also be peppered with targets. He still has more work to do at practice the rest of the week to be cleared. If he cannot play, rookie A.T. Perry, Keith Kirkwood and Lynn Bowden would start in three-receiver sets for the Saints, with tight ends Taysom Hill and Juwan Johnson potentially serving as the top targets for quarterback Derek Carr.
