Saints WR Chris Olave 'not worried' after 'unlucky' concussions

Our Summary

New Orleans Saints receiver Chris Olave missed significant playtime in 2024 due to concussions, including a severe one in November that sidelined him for the season's final eight games. Despite his strong first two seasons with over 1,000 yards each, Olave has faced four known concussions in three years. After consulting specialists and being cleared in December, he expressed readiness to return. Olave is also the subject of trade rumors, fueled by his injury history and the Saints' quarterback issues, though he dismisses these speculations, emphasizing his commitment to the team. Olave has two years left on his rookie contract, with the Saints having exercised a fifth-year option for 2026.
