NFL.com News on Chris Olave
From the article
Chris Olave was the star of New Orleans' Week 1 comeback and proved to be Tyler Shough's favorite target in Week 2, making timely catches throughout Sunday's contest on his way to an eight-catch, 86-yard finish. In just two weeks, it seems as though Shough knows where to turn when he needs a completion most, and Olave is consistently making difficult catches all over the field while earning extra yards with his footwork and willingness to fight through contact... when Shough dropped to pass with the Saints needing a touchdown in the fourth, it was Olave who sifted through the defense, found open space and caught a perfectly placed rope from Shough for the score.
STACKED’s take
Olave's 8 catches, 86 yards and TD make him Shough's favorite target through two weeks.
Olave was Tyler Shough's favorite target in Week 2, making timely catches throughout the contest on his way to an eight-catch, 86-yard finish; in just two weeks, Shough knows where to turn when he needs a completion most, and Olave is consistently making difficult catches all over the field while earning extra yards with his footwork and willingness to fight through contact. His emergence was much needed in Kellen Moore's offense after Jordyn Tyson's injury dampened the Saints' passing potential entering 2026, and he has unquestionably made up for it through two weeks. When the Saints needed a touchdown in the fourth quarter, it was Olave who sifted through the defense, found open space and caught a perfectly placed rope from Shough for the score.
