The New Orleans Saints suffered a terrifying injury last week against the Seattle Seahawks.
On a touchdown catch, rookie wideout Chris Olave landed hard on his head and appeared to be knocked out. He was removed from the game for a concussion.
Luckily, his health seems to be headed in the right direction.
The Saints won't rush him back, but his progression is a positive.
New Orleans may be without WRs Jarvis Landry and Michael Thomas again this weekend. Adding Olave to that group would make them extremely shorthand against the Bengals.
That being said, they must follow the NFL's new concussion system. Bringing Olave back too soon would be a detriment to both their rookie star receiver and the team. The risk of re-injury is way too dangerous.
Hopefully, Olave continues his rehab and can join the Saints on the field as soon as he is back to 100%.
