Chris Olave

Rookie QB Tyler Shough completed 19 of 27 passes for 282 yards and 2 TDs with no INTs i in the win against the Carolina Panthers. He supported the Saints top two receiving weapons in WR Chris Olave (5-104-1) and TE Juwan Johnson (4-92-1). Despite the strong showing, the Saints' offense only scored 17 points.

Johnson's 30-yard touchdown put the game on ice in the fourth quarter. In the Saints' first game since trading Rashid Shaheed, the 29-year-old tight end tailed only Chris Olave with four targets. Johnson looks the part of a low-end TE1 heading into the Saints' Week 11 bye week.

In the first game since the Saints traded Rashid Shaheed to the Seahawks, Olave led the team with eight targets. That was twice as many targets as Juwan Johnson had. Olave's big play of the day was a 62-yard touchdown that put the Saints ahead in the second quarter. Olave looks like a high-end WR2 with Shaheed in Seattle. Fantasy managers will have to find another option in Week 11, though, as the Saints bye week is coming up.

Shough hit Chris Olave for a 62-yard touchdown that gave the Saints the lead at the start of the second quarter and never looked back. The 26-year-old rookie quarterback had a more than passable performance in his second career start. After a Bryce Young interception in the fourth quarter, the Saints took over leading by three. Shough iced the game with a 30-yard touchdown pass to Juwan Johnson. In the Saints' first game without Rashid Shaheed, Shough completed nine of his 19 passes to Olave and Johnson. He'll be in low-end QB2 territory for the rest of the season.

Rookie quarterback Tyler Shough threw for 282 yards and two touchdowns as the New Orleans Saints snapped a four-game skid with a 17-7 win over the Carolina Panthers. Shough connected with Chris Olave for a 62-yard score and Juwan Johnson for a 30-yard touchdown, while Alvin Kamara totaled 115 scrimmage yards to pace the offense.
