The New Orleans Saints already have a plethora of obstacles in their way right now.
Injuries have piled up. Play-calling has been inconsistent at times. The weather for their matchup versus the Browns does not look ideal.
Now, another massive blow has hit the Saints. Wide receiver Chris Olave suffered a hamstring injury last week.
The Saints have already ruled him out for this weekend's game against the Browns.
The injury report is lengthy once again for the Saints.
They will be without WR Jarvis Landry as well as RB Dwayne Washington, too. Their depth is certainly taking more hits on offense. On defense, linebacker Pete Werner is out as well. He returned and played well last week, but he's back on the shelf, unfortunately.
For the Saints, Olave is definitely the biggest loss. He's their best wide receiver. He and Andy Dalton have a great relationship, and the young wideout stretches the field for the Saints.
Against Cleveland, expect a run-heavy offense for New Orleans in frigid weather.
Without Olave and Landry, the passing game may struggle throughout the day.
