Chris Olave Logs Full Practice
3 months agoUpdating a previous report, New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (concussion) was a full participant in Thursday's practice after he was listed as limited on Wednesday. Olave suffered a concussion in the Week 6 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and then missed last Thursday night's loss to the Denver Broncos. The 24-year-old is clearly advancing through the league's concussion protocol and will now just need to get the green light from an independent neurologist later this week in order to return to the field this Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers. Olave should be the unquestioned WR1 for New Orleans if he's back this weekend, but quarterback Derek Carr (oblique) is still out, and the Saints are facing a Chargers defense allowing the third-fewest half-PPR points to wideouts this year. If Olave plays, fantasy managers should consider him a shaky WR3/flex against LA.
