Saints' Chris Olave: Three catches in win
Olave brought in three of five targets for 30 yards in the Saints' 24-20 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Olave played through a back issue for the second straight week and put together a modest performance by his lofty standards, although Devaughn Vele was the Saints' leader in receiving yards with just 10 more than Olave. The fourth-year wideout's yardage tally was his second lowest of the season, but Olave managed to keep his season-long streak of no less than three catches in any game alive. Olave next takes aim at the Panthers secondary in a Week 15 home clash next Sunday.

Saints' Chris Olave: Playing through back issue Sunday
Olave (back) is active for Sunday's game at Tampa Bay.
For the second week in a row, Olave took a questionable tag into game day, but he'll once again be able to play though the back issue after turning in limited practices Thursday and Friday. Olave didn't appear to be operating with any restrictions during last week's loss to the Dolphins, finishing with four catches for 47 yards on seven targets while notching his fifth touchdown catch of the season.

Saints' Chris Olave: Likely to play through injury again
Olave, who is officially questionable to play Sunday versus Tampa Bay due to a lingering back issue, is expected to suit up, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Olave also dealt with the back issue last week, but he was able to play and logged a 4-47-1 receiving line in a loss to Miami. The veteran wideout sat out one practice and was limited in two others during Week 14 prep, but he appears to have done enough to put himself on a path to suit up again Sunday. Despite New Orleans' inconsistent quarterback play throughout the campaign, Olave has tied a career-high mark with five receiving touchdowns while posting 781 yards on 73 catches through 12 games.

Saints' Chris Olave: Questionable to face Bucs
Olave (back) will be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Saints team reporter Erin Summers reports.
Olave's practice participation has been capped by a back injury, which also had him listed as questionable for this past Sunday's game against the Dolphins. He managed to play through it against Miami and caught four of seven targets for 47 yards and a touchdown. If he gets the green light to play against the Buccaneers, Olave will likely continue to function as the focal point of New Orleans' passing game, as he ranks fourth in the NFL with 115 targets this season.

Saints' Chris Olave: Back at practice
Olave (back) returned to practice Thursday, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports.
Coach Kellen Moore said Wednesday that the back injury Olave dealt with last week flared up after Sunday's loss at Miami, per Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football, resulting in an absence to begin Week 14 prep. Olave's activity level one day later will be revealed once the Saints post Thursday's practice report.

Saints' Chris Olave: Limited in return to practice
Olave (back) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Olave sat out Wednesday's session after his back injury from last week flared up after Sunday's defeat at Miami, as coach Kellen Moore told Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football. One day later, Olave's ability to handle at least individual drills indicates that he's trending positively ahead of Sunday's game at Tampa Bay, and Friday's injury report will reveal if he carries a designation into the weekend.

Saints' Chris Olave: Still dealing with back injury
Olave (back) didn't practice Wednesday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Olave was able to play this past Sunday at Miami after dealing with a back injury last week. Coach Kellen Moore said that the issue flared up for Olave after that contest, and the fourth-year pro now will have two more chances this week to mix into drills before the Saints potentially tag him with a designation for a second straight week. Despite the health concern, Olave was able to log an 87 percent snap share Week 13 on his way to four catches (on seven targets) for 47 yards and one touchdown.

Saints' Chris Olave: Scores TD in Week 14
Olave gathered in four of seven targets for 47 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 21-17 defeat to the Dolphins.
Olave suited up after dealing with back spasms that left him questionable to play Week 13. The wideout finished third on the Saints in targets, as Devaughn Vele logged eight targets while tight end Juwan Johnson led the team with nine. Olave still scored his second touchdown in the last three games, connecting with rookie QB Tyler Shough for the second time since he became the Saints' starter Week 9. Despite the Saints' quarterback struggles, Olave's consistency and WR1 usage make him a no-brainer starting option for fantasy purposes. The Saints next face the Buccaneers in Week 14.

Saints' Chris Olave: Suiting up Sunday
Olave (back) is listed as active Sunday at Miami.
Olave exited Wednesday's practice early due to a back injury, going down as a limited participant in the process. He was held out of drills entirely Thursday, but a capped session Friday led to a questionable designation for Week 13 action. Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reported Saturday evening that Olave, who battled back spasms during the week, was slated to suit up for Sunday's game, which now has been confirmed. In three starts with rookie QB Tyler Shough under center, Olave has accrued a 17-231-1 line on 25 targets, making him an easy plug-and-play option for fantasy purposes.

Saints' Chris Olave: Should suit up Sunday
Olave (back), who is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Miami, is expected to play, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Olave sat out one practice and was limited in two others this week while managing the back issue, but after traveling with the Saints to Miami, he seems to be in line to suit up. The wideout has continued to be productive this season despite inconsistent play from New Orleans' quarterbacks, as he's put together a 69-734-4 receiving line through 11 games.

Saints' Chris Olave: Listed as questionable
Olave (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Miami after returning to practice Friday as a limited participant.
A quick return to practice suggests Olave's injury isn't serious. He left practice early Wednesday and didn't participate Thursday, but mixing back into drills at the end of the week -- even in a limited capacity -- suggests he's got a real chance to avoid the inactive list ahead of a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday.
