Availability
Saints head coach Kellen Moore said the team and Chris Olave have had discussions about an extension.
Fantasy Impact
Olave is set to enter the final year of his rookie contract. His name has come up in some trade rumors, but it appears he is more likely to remain in New Orleans. The two sides should reach an extension at some point this offseason.
Josina Anderson mentioned Saints WR Chris Olave as a name that has come up in conversations for the Patriots.
Fantasy Impact
Olave is coming off the best overall season of his career. His name has been one that has come up in trade rumors dating back to last season as the Saints look to potentially enter more of a rebuild. He could be a trade option for the Patriots if they can't land AJ Brown.
Chris Olave (blood clot) has been ruled out out for Week 18 for the New Orleans Saints against the Atlanta Falcons.
Fantasy Impact
Olave will miss the season-ending contest for a New Orleans offense that has been productive of late, as the wideout enjoyed an impactful campaign as rookie quarterback Tyler Shough’s primary option in the passing game, finishing with 100 receptions for 1,163 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns for the Saints.
Chris Olave caught 8 of 11 targets for 119 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's win over the Titans.
Fantasy Impact
Olave followed up his huge game in Week 16 with another big outing in Sunday's win. The fourth-year receiver has now scored four times over the last three weeks, averaging eight grabs for 117 yards per game in the process. Olave has now set new career highs in yards and touchdowns this season.
Saints WR Chris Olave (back) is officially active for Week 17.
Fantasy Impact
Olave was limited in practice this week due to a lingering back issue. Fantasy managers should expect Olave to see his usual target share against the Titans, barring a setback during the game.
