Saints' Chris Olave: Tops century mark again Sunday
Rotowire
Olave caught nine of 13 targets for 107 yards in Sunday's 35-27 loss to the Raiders.
The fifth-year wideout led the Saints in catches, targets and receiving yards, but all four of Tyler Shough's TD passes went to tight ends instead of Olave. Olave has hauled in more than 100 yards in two of three games to begin the season, amassing a 27-375-1 line on 36 targets, and he'll look to keep rolling in Week 4 at home against the Falcons.
Olave caught eight of 10 targets for 86 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-17 win over Baltimore.
The fifth-year wideout dealt with a minor hamstring issue during the week, but Olave looked fully healthy when he hauled in a 21-yard strike from Tyler Shough early in the fourth quarter to tie the game at 17-17. Olave has an impressive 18-268-1 line on 23 targets through two games as the Saints' clear top downfield option, and he seems likely to continue padding his numbers in a Week 3 home tilt against the Raiders.

Saints' Chris Olave: Suiting up in Week 2
Rotowire
Olave (hamstring) is listed as active Sunday at Baltimore, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Olave made an early exit from Thursday's practice due to a hamstring injury, but it was considered a precautionary measure at the time, per Underhill. Olave remained limited Friday and entered the weekend listed as questionable for Week 2 action, but Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Sunday morning that the wide receiver was slated to play. Prior to being confirmed as active, Olave was expected to have no limitations on his workload, according to Underhill, a reality that amounted to 10 catches (on 13 targets) for 182 yards in a season-opening overtime loss in Detroit.

Rotowire
Olave (hamstring), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens, is on track to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

According to Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football, Olave made the trip to Baltimore with his teammates, and barring a setback in pregame warmups, he'll be formally cleared to play upon the release of the Saints' inactive list approximately 90 minutes prior to the 1 p.m. ET kickoff. Underhill adds that Olave isn't expected to face any limitations in terms of snaps.
