Fantasy Football Outlook: Will Chris Olave Play Week 7?
Chris Olave (concussion) ruled out for Thursday night
Chris Olave (concussion) has been ruled out for Thursday night’s game against the Denver Broncos.
Fantasy Impact
As expected, Olave will not be able to play on Thursday night. He suffered a concussion in Sunday’s loss to the Buccaneers, and he never had much of a chance to get cleared to play with New Orleans having a short week of preparation. Rashid Shaheed (knee) will also be out for the Saints, so they may need to look for players like Cedrick Wilson and Juwan Johnson to step up and play a bigger role on their offense against the Broncos.

Chris Olave was sidelined from practice on Monday.
Fantasy Impact
Olave left Sunday’s game early due to a concussion. His status is worth monitoring, but it feels unlikely that he will clear protocols on a short week.
