Chris Olave Could Be Back In Week 8

Tuesday, October 22, 1:02 PM

NewOrleans.Football's Nick Underhill writes that New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (concussion) could be back with the team for their Week 8 contest on Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers. Olave suffered a concussion in the Week 6 loss to the division-rival Tampa Bay Buccaneers and was unable to gain clearance to play in last Thursday night's loss to the Denver Broncos. The 24-year-old former first-rounder is still in the league's concussion protocol, though, so he'll need to improve this week before hoping to gain clearance from an independent neurologist later in the week. Fantasy managers shouldn't consider Olave a lock at all to return against LA. And with Rashid Shaheed (knee) done for the year, the Saints could be forced to use rookies Mason Tipton and Bub Means and Cedrick Wilson Jr. in three-wide sets again this weekend if Olave misses a second straight game.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Records Just Three Catches In Week 7

Tuesday, October 22, 10:09 AM

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. caught just three of his six targets in the Week 7 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. Harrison Jr's official stat line was three catches for 21 yards. He seems to be out of sync with the Cardinals' offense over the last couple of weeks. At times on the field, he appears disengaged and not consistently targeted. The usage of wide receivers in the Cardinals' offense may be alarming for fantasy managers, but Harrison Jr. is not someone to remove from your fantasy team. The Cardinals will travel to Miami next week to face the Dolphins, and Harrison Jr. will likely still be a starter in fantasy. However, fantasy managers may want to explore other options until some consistency is established.
