Trends


"Olave is entering his fourth NFL season following a troubling 2024 campaign in which he played only six full games while battling concussion woes. The good news is that Olave appears healthy for 2025 and he's been productive when active throughout his career. That includes 2024, as he produced 80-plus yards four times in those six games. He handled a 24% target share, which wasn't far off his 27% and 25% rates during his first two seasons. The 2022 first-round pick has yet to reach his ceiling (he's yet to clear five TDs in a season), but he produced top-25 fantasy campaigns in his first two seasons and is set up well to pace New Orleans in targets in 2025. Of course, there's added risk here as the Saints turn to rookie QB Tyler Shough following Derek Carr's retirement. Olave is safest as a WR3/flex, with a hint of post-hype sleeper appeal."


"Olave saw his first game action since Week 9 of the 2024 regular season, when he suffered a season-ending concussion. He then missed the Saints' preseason opener against the Chargers due to an ankle injury. The 2022 first-round pick has regained health, but he could be held back by questionable quarterback play in 2025. Both of Olave's catches Sunday came on passes from rookie second-round pick Tyler Shough, who is competing against Spencer Rattler for the starting role after Derek Carr retired in the offseason. New Orleans hasn't settled on a starting QB ahead of the team's final preseason game against the Broncos on Saturday."
