    Chris Olave (hamstring) is active for Week 2 against the Ravens.

    Olave is officially active after popping up on Thursday’s injury report with a hamstring issue. He logged a limited practice Friday, so hopefully he won’t be too hampered in what could be a high-scoring game. Assuming a normal workload, Olave projects as a solid WR1. While Olave is active, the Saints did declare RB Kendre Miller, QB Zach Wilson, CB Decamerion Richardson, LB Isaiah Stalbird, DL Christen Miller, OL Mason Murphy, and DL John Ridgeway III inactive for Week 2.

    Loomis said Tyson is “improving” in his long rehab from a major preseason hamstring injury. Tyson, who traveled with the Saints to France for their Week 7 game against the Steelers, could still be a couple weeks away as the team takes a cautious approach to his recovery. In the meantime, Bryce Lance will operate as the Saints’ No. 2 wideout behind Chris Olave. Lance over the past two weeks has a 13 percent target share and a 20 percent air yards share in the pass-first New Orleans offense.

    Olave finished as the Saints’ leading receiver after coming into the weekend questionable with an illness. He was able to salvage his fantasy day with an 18-yard score at the beginning of the fourth quarter. Despite a season-low 43 yards receiving, Olave is still averaging just under 100 yards receiving per game this season. There is no question he belongs in the fantasy WR1 ranks heading into a Week 7 showdown against the Steelers.

    There was reportedly a bug going around the Saints’ locker room last weekend, and Olave seems to have caught the tail end of it. He missed the first two practices of the week but was back on the field for Friday’s session. The team listed him as questionable for Week 6. Barring any further updates, we’re expecting business as usual for the star wideout. He remains entrenched in the WR1 mix for his date with the Giants.
  • NO Wide Receiver #12
    Olave missed the first two days of practice this week with the illness, but we’d ultimately still expect him to play. He should be regarded as on the optimistic side of questionable. He’ll be an easy WR1, assuming he plays, against the Giants in Week 6.

    Unless we get word that it’s an exceptionally rough illness, we’d expect no worse than a questionable listing on Friday despite the two missed practices. Olave should remain a smash WR1 against the Giants in Week 6.
  • NO Wide Receiver #12
    We expect Olave to be fine for the Saints’ Week 6 game against the Giants. There is currently no cause for concern, but this is worth keeping an eye on. Olave experienced blood clots in his lung last season, and spent much of the offseason recovering. We are not doctors and cannot opine on the matter. For now, expect him to play, but keep an eye out for his hopeful return to practice tomorrow or Friday.

    Olave was averaging over 120 yards per game before today’s contest. The Saints’ extreme play volume and tilt to toward passing the ball turned his great role into elite fantasy production. That finally came to a halt with Brian Flore’s defense shutting down Tyler Shough. The second-year passer completed just 16 throws for 96 yards. Shough and the entire passing attack should improve drastically versus the Giants next week. Fantasy managers can keep treating Olave as a WR1 despite this speed bump.

    The Saints gave Olave a rest day on Wednesday. He then logged a limited practice on Thursday, listed with a new foot injury, and was reportedly seen sporting a walking boot after practice. ESPN’s Kat Terrell notes, however, that “walking boots are often a precautionary measure.” The fact that the team cleared him right away is reassuring. He can be treated as a low-end WR1, as usual. Olave later told Terrell that his “foot got a little bruised in Thursday’s practice, but he’s good.”

    It is tough to say when exactly the injury happened. This is bizarre. Olave took a hard hit to the lower body late in Week 4 and subbed himself out for the team’s final possession. He did not practice on Wednesday. The team listed it as a rest day, and New Orleans Football’s Nick Underhill reported that coach Kellen Moore clarified three times that Olave’s Wednesday absence was not injury-related. Olave resumed practicing in a limited capacity on Thursday with a foot injury. If this injury occurred in-game, he should be considered likely to play. If it occurred in practice today, he would be firmly in the questionable column. Stay tuned.
  • NO Wide Receiver #12
    Olave found himself with a relatively quiet receiving line in the first half as the Saints struggled to consistently move the football, something that has become far too familiar under head coach Kellen Moore’s tutelage. As has been the case for some time, Olave got going after the break, ending with his third 100-yard game in four tries, now trailing only CeeDee Lamb in receiving yards through the first month of the season. Fantasy managers will want to monitor the electric wide receiver’s practice status in the coming days after he pulled himself out of the game on the team’s final possession with some sort of ailment. If healthy, Olave remains an elite WR1 ahead of a Week 5 meeting with the Vikings.

    Steelers declared CB Brandin Echols, WR Ben Skowronek, QB Drew Allar, QB Will Howard, RB Eli Heidenreich, and CB Terell Smith inactive for Week 7 against the Saints.

    Echols and Skowronek are the only players on Pittsburgh’s active roster who will miss today’s game because of injuries, though they have several key players on IR. Both players have more snaps on special teams than offense or defense this year.

    49ers activated Christian Kirk (calf) from injured reserve.

    The 49ers would normally have Kirk on a pitch count for his first game of the year. With their top four receivers unavailable for today’s game, Kirk may be thrust into a full-time role right away. He will be in the mix for WR1 duties in San Francisco alongside Brandin Cooks and Jordan Watkins. Kirk is a long-shot FLEX option for his first game as a 49er.

    Browns signed Maliek Collins to a two-year, $30 million contract extension.

    According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the deal includes $23 million in total guarantees. Collins has heated up recently with 3.5 sacks over his past three games. He is coming off a career-high 6.5 sacks in 2025 and now has a chance to top that number this year. Collins’ new deal keeps him under contract with the Browns through 2028.

    Cowboys ruled out KaVontae Turpin (ribs) for Week 7 against the Eagles.

    Turpin’s absence will be felt most on special teams, with the team now forced to find a replacement on punt and kick returns. Otherwise, there is almost zero fantasy impact as the team’s WR4.

    Falcons activated A.J. Terrell (groin) from injured reserve.

    The Falcons have been attackable on the perimeter while playing most of the season without Terrell. Fellow cornerback C.J. Henderson is listed questionable for Week 7, but the reintegration of Terrell provides a much more difficult matchup for the injury-riddled 49ers.

    Broncos activated Jonah Coleman (ankle) from injured reserve.

    Coleman missed the minimum four games as he tended to an ankle injury suffered in Week 2. He led the team in snaps in that contest and could return to the primary rushing role considering the inefficient play of J.K. Dobbins in his absence, making him worthy of a start in fantasy circles in a plus matchup against the Cardinals in his first game back.

    Ravens ruled out Lamar Jackson (ankle) for Week 7 against the Bengals.

    Tyler Huntley will draw the start under center for the third straight game as Jackson continues to rehab a high-ankle sprain. Jackson reportedly took most of the first-team reps at practice Friday and was close to being able to play in Week 7, with the team ultimately siding with caution for their franchise quarterback. The Ravens enter a 15-game stretch in which they play three games starting in Week 8, which could have influenced their decision to hold Jackson out one more game. Expect him back for Week 8 against the Bills. His absence greatly influences the upside of the remaining skill position players considering Declan Doyle has halved his usage of play action and completely eliminated RPO with Huntley under center.

    Dallas Goedert (knee) was removed from the injury report Saturday and will play against the Cowboys in Week 7.

    Goedert reportedly aggravated his previous knee injury but got back on the practice field for a full session Saturday before being removed from the injury report. He could be stepping into a massive target share with both DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks ruled out. Fantasy managers can start him as an upside TE1 in a great matchup against the Cowboys in Week 7.

    Saquon Barkley (hamstring) is questionable for Week 7 against the Cowboys.

    Although getting in a full practice Saturday, the Eagles head into Monday’s game against the Cowboys with Barkley listed as questionable following a two-game absence. Fantasy managers have a decision considering the Eagles play in Week 7’s final game on Monday Night Football, with no clear fall back options should he be unable to play. It would seem prudent to make alternate plans at the position.
