Tyson's hamstring injury secures Olave's massive workload and top-five ceiling potential.

Olave appears ticketed for a massive workload in 2026 after the Saints drafted Jordyn Tyson eighth overall, as the rookie will miss time this season with a hamstring injury. While a healthier Tyson could have cut into Olave's target share, the injury delay preserves Olave's role as the No. 1 passing-game weapon. If second-year quarterback Tyler Shough and the offense take a step forward, Olave could see additional touchdowns and reach his ceiling of a top-five finish in scoring at the position.
