Chris Olave, listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Ravens, still made the trip to Baltimore with the Saints on Saturday. This is a bit of a head-scratcher, especially after the team elevated another wideout from the practice squad, which usually screams “he’s not playing!”
Olave’s Hamstring: A Real Puzzle
Olave has been battling a hamstring injury all week, and his “questionable” tag definitely had Saints fans on edge. You’d think if he wasn’t going to play, he’d stay home, right? Nick Underhill from NewOrleans.Football confirmed he traveled. But with Kevin Austin, another wide receiver, getting called up from the practice squad (he even played in their Week 1 loss to the Lions), it definitely feels like they’re preparing for Olave to sit. What’s the real deal here?
Young’s Calf Adds to the Drama
It’s not just Olave creating drama. Defensive end Chase Young is also questionable for the Ravens game, dealing with a calf injury, and he also made the trip. So, both key players with injury concerns are with the team. The Saints also called up long snapper Scott Daly for Sunday’s game.
Sunday Showdown in Baltimore
So, here we are, staring down Sunday’s game against the Ravens with two big question marks traveling with the team. Saints fans are going to be sweating their pre-game warmups hard to see who actually suits up. This is a big one, and having these guys healthy is crucial.
