Saints WR Chris Olave limited with newly listed foot injury

Nick Underhill

Oct 08 · 5:58 PM EDT

Chris Olave was limited with a foot injury. He did not participate yesterday due to rest.

Related Players: Devaughn Vele, Juwan Johnson, Tyler Shough

Fantasy Impact:

If Olave sits, Vele would have a stronger claim to WR3/FLEX consideration, with WR2 upside if he absorbs a substantial share of Olave’s targets. Johnson would become a more appealing TE1 play with additional receiving opportunities available. Losing his top WR would make Shough a less attractive QB2 option. Olave remains a WR1 if healthy enough to play his usual role.

Saints Beat: Chris Olave’s hamstring issue not expected to be a problem

Nick Underhill

Sep 18 · 10:02 AM EDT

Chris Olave left practice as a precautionary measure, I'm told. Nothing that is expected to be a problem.

Fantasy Impact:

The clarification substantially reduces concern surrounding Olave’s Thursday limitation. Barring a Friday setback, he should remain in fantasy lineups as a high-end WR1 after commanding 10 receptions for 182 yards in Week 1.

Saints WR Chris Olave added to injury report with hamstring issue

Saints

Sep 17 · 7:02 PM EDT

Olave was added to Thursday’s injury report because of a hamstring injury. He was able to participate on a limited basis.

Fantasy Impact:

Friday’s participation will be important because Olave was added rather than carried over from Wednesday. Vele would become New Orleans’ leading wide-receiver option if Olave cannot play, with Johnson and Fant potentially absorbing additional middle-of-the-field opportunities. Shough would receive a significant downgrade without his clear No. 1 target.

Saints WR Jordan Tyson (hamstring) expected to miss two months

Ian Rapoport on X

Aug 17 · 7:06 PM EDT

Saints rookie WR Jordyn Tyson is expected to be out roughly two months with his hamstring injury, per me and Mike Garafolo.

Fantasy Impact:

Tyson has been a standout during training camp, so it's a potential big loss at least early on for the offense, with a mid-October return looking like a possibility. Tyson, who has been consulting with experts, could begin the season on short-term Injured Reserve, according to Rapoport. Vele could move into the WR2 role after flashing at times last season coming over from the Broncos. Lance and Brown are also rookie WRs who could get a chance.
