New Orleans
Chris Olave Out for Week 18
Blood clot discovered in his lung
By: Mike Krueger | Jan 1 2026, 10:15 am

Chris Olave will be out this week, per source. A blood clot was detected in his lung. Got caught early before anything bad could happen and will be fine. But not playing this week. (Nick Underhill on X)

FFToday's Take: This is not a condition we typically see with NFL players but nevertheless, Olave will miss the Saints final regular season game in 2025. He's been the lone consistent fantasy option in this offense that will now feature Kevin Austin Jr. and Dante Pettis at wide receiver in Week 18. TE Juwan Johnson will also push for double-digit targets against the Falcons.
