Chris Olave caught 3-of-5 targets for 30 yards in the Saints' Week 14 win over the Bucs.With the Saints riding the running game and short fields following failed Bucs fourth down attempts, Olave posted his second fewest receiving yards of the season as Tyler Shough attempted only 20 passes in the rain. Olave was the intended target on Shough's interception, a miscommunication where Olave cut off his route. If Olave's back injury was an issue, we didn't notice. Today was disappointing, but the Saints are typically a high-attempts passing attack. He will remain a strong WR2 for Week 15 against the Panthers.

He missed Wednesday's practice this week but was on the field for the following two sessions before being listed a questionable. Per usual, Olave is on track for volume-based WR2 numbers versus the Bucs.
