New Orleans Saints WR Chris Olave's fifth-year option has been exercised, according to general manager Mickey Loomis.
Huddle Up: Olave struggled with concussions this past season but is a reliable fantasy option when healthy. He should be at least a No. 3 receiver in fantasy leagues in 2025.

New Orleans Saints WR Chris Olave has had "a huge impact" on the team and will have a huge impact (in 2025)," according to head coach Kellen Moore on Tuesday, April 1.
Huddle Up: It didn't take Moore very long to identify that Olave should be highly involved, but the questions regarding Olave have more to do with his ability to stay on the field. The 24-year-old logged only eight games in 2024 and has a concerning concussion history, so Moore will have to keep that at the forefront of his mind for as long as the two are tied at the hip. When healthy, Olave is a solid fantasy WR2 with WR1 upside.

New Orleans Saints WR Chris Olave (head) was ruled out for Week 18 on Saturday, Jan 4. Olave was previously listed as questionable.
Huddle Up: It would've made no sense for the Saints to run Olave out there with nothing to play for. No Saints are worth starting in Week 18 with Spencer Rattler under center.

New Orleans Saints WR Chris Olave (concussion) fully participated in practice Friday, Jan. 3, but is listed as questionable for Week 18.
Huddle Up: Olave is currently on the Reserve/Injured list, so fantasy players will have to see if he will be activated prior to the game. He likely will only see a few targets if he plays and will be a risky fantasy option.

New Orleans Saints WR Chris Olave (head) fully participated in practice Thursday, Jan. 2.
Huddle Up: Olave has been making progress in his recovery, but it is not known if he will be activated before the Week 18 game. He will see a few targets if he plays and could be a flex option in some leagues.

New Orleans Saints WR Chris Olave (head) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Jan. 1.
Huddle Up: Fantasy players will need to monitor the situation to see if Olave is added to the 53-man roster before the Week 18 game. He probably will see a few targets if he is cleared to play and could be a flex option in some leagues.

New Orleans Saints WR Chris Olave (concussion) was downgraded to out for Week 17 on Saturday, Dec. 28.
Huddle Up: With nothing to play for, the Saints should just sit Olave for the rest of the season, but it remains to be seen if that will be the approach. No Saints pass-catchers can be trusted with Spencer Rattler starting again in Week 17.
