What happened: Olave is coming off a 2025 season with 100 receptions in 16 games for New Orleans. The 2022 first-round pick added 1,163 receiving yards and nine touchdowns.

Why it matters: A 100-catch season sets the baseline for a lead receiver in any weekly game plan. That makes Olave a key reference point for New Orleans as the 2026 regular season moves deeper into October.

By the numbers: Olave averaged 11.6 yards per catch and 72.7 receiving yards per game while posting 100 receptions and nine touchdowns in 16 games in 2025.

What to watch: Watch Olave's weekly target volume and availability as the Saints move through the next stretch of the 2026 schedule.
