Injuries are always a part of offseason activities. For the New Orleans Saints, they hope to avoid any major ones as the season looms in the distance. One of their top offensive weapons gave folks a bit of a scare on Thursday. Wide receiver Chris Olave did not practice, and that will always raise some eyebrows.
Luckily, it doesn't seem substantial, according to Nick Underhill. He says that it is a minor situation with a little achilles inflammation.
It won't affect Olave long-term. It sounds like he'll be good to go after this week, but it is something to keep an eye on regardless. Olave is the most talented receiver on the roster at this point – consider Michael Thomas' age and injury history. Olave has dominated practices so far and looks to progress off of an incredible rookie campaign last year.
