Chris Olave
WR - New Orleans Saints
Availability
Since Week 9, with Tyler Shough under center, Olave has been the WR22 in fantasy points per game with a 22.4% target share, 61.6 receiving yards per game, 1.95 yards per route run, and a 31.3% first-read share. In those five games, Olave has four end zone targets and ten deep targets. This week, he faces a Carolina pass defense that, since Week 8, has utilized single high at the seventh-highest rate (58.5%). Since Week 9, against single high, Olave has had a 26.5% first-read share with 2.19 yards per route run and a 31.3% first-read share. Olave is a strong WR1/2 again this week. Since Week 10, Carolina has allowed the seventh-most PPR points per target to perimeter wide receivers.
Tyler Shough only attempted 20 passes for 144 yards, so the receivers suffered due to lack of volume. Nobody saw more than five targets. Shough also missed Chris Olave deep to start the game (25% target share and 51 incomplete air yards). These receivers were all productive in the first matchup versus the Panthers so we should see this passing attack rebound.
