Nonetheless, it’s a traffic violation that Olave will get past. The former Ohio State standout broke out as a rookie with 1,042 receiving yards. This season, Olave already has 471 yards and is on pace to bypass his rookie total.

New Orleans fell to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Thursday Night Football in Week 7. Next up for the Saints is a game in Indianapolis to take on the Colts. At this time, no Saints statement has been available.
