What happened: NFL Films placed New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave at No. 64 on the NFL Top 100 Players of 2026 list. The ranking was unveiled in a video posted by the league's official account.
Why it matters: Olave's slot is the highest of the three Saints revealed on the countdown, ahead of Travis Etienne Jr. at No. 96 and Cameron Jordan at No. 100. It underscores Olave's standing as New Orleans' top offensive weapon as the team enters the 2026 season with a reshaped backfield after Alvin Kamara's restructured deal.
By the numbers: Saints entrants revealed so far on the NFL Top 100 of 2026: Chris Olave (No. 64), Travis Etienne Jr. (No. 96), Cameron Jordan (No. 100).
What to watch: The countdown continues toward No. 1, with more Saints players possibly still to be revealed.
