The New Orleans Saints have listed wide receiver Chris Olave (concussion) as questionable to play in the Week 18 regular-season finale on Sunday against the division-rival Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Florida.
According to the team, New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (concussion) practiced in full again on Thursday. Fantasy managers should keep a close eye on his status during Friday's practice as he may not only be nearing a return but could avoid an injury designation as well.
Much like the rest of the New Orleans Saints, wide receiver Chris Olave has had a year to forget. Olave had flashes of being his regular productive self when healthy, but multiple additional head injuries have kept him on the side line for over half the season.
Olave carried a questionable designation on the Saints' final Week 17 injury report after logging three straight practices as a full participant. The Saints top pass catching target, however, hasn't proved any progress in concussion protocol to get back on the field for the first time since Week 9.
Saints wide receiver Chris Olave could be available for the team's Week 17 matchup against the Raiders, but he will not have much company.
Olave now has been listed as full on four consecutive practice reports, but he's yet to receive clearance from an independent neurologist following the concussion that he suffered Week 9 at Carolina.
