Chris Olave

Derek Carr has cleared concussion protocol and, to the disappointment of fantasy owners, is expected to be on the field in Week 14 against the Carolina Panthers. Despite being limited earlier in the week, Carr became a full participant in Friday’s practice, dealing with a concussion, right shoulder, and rib injuries. While officially questionable for Sunday, all signs point to his active participation. Chris Olave, who missed practice due to illness, is also anticipated to play. Taysom Hill, nursing foot and left-hand injuries, is listed as questionable after missing practice.

The New Orleans Saints, facing a three-game losing streak, contemplate a shift to Jameis Winston for a much-needed spark. Winston and Carr bring distinct playing styles to the table; Winston, akin to a sports car, is known for his aggressive, strong-arm, shot-taking approach, in contrast to Carr’s reliable Sedan style, favoring shorter high-percentage passes. Despite fantasy owners yearning for Winston’s high-energy plays, it seems they’ll have to temporarily park that experience in the garage.

According to Nick Underhill of the New Orleans Football Network, Chris Olave was arrested Monday night for reckless operation of a motor vehicle. Olave was going 35 MPH over the speed limit and was cooperative with the police. Video of the arrest has been released by TMZ which shows a calm cooperative Olave.

Earlier this offseason fellow Wide Reciever, Jordan Addison of the Minnesota Vikings, was arrested and pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges after going 140 MPH in a 55 MPH zone. Marquise Brown of the Arizona Cardinals was arrested in August for speeding after going 126 MLH in a 65 mph zone. Neither Addison nor Brown faced any disciplinary actions by the NFL. The same should be expected for Olave. No one was injured due to his speeding and he was not under the influence when pulled over.  The Saints play the Colts on Sunday.
