Chris Olave Has Quiet Week 5 vs. Vikings

Sunday, October 11, 12:09 PM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave hauled in four receptions for just 46 yards in a 23-13 Week 5 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. The veteran wideout was a projected must-start despite the difficult matchup against Minnesota, especially after catching eight of 12 targets for 116 yards in Week 4 against the Atlanta Falcons. The Saints' passing game will continue to get tested, going up against another formidable defense in Week 6 when they visit the New York Giants. Olave has the potential to bounce back, but is a bust in Week 5 after being a must-start candidate.

Rashee Rice News

Rashee Rice Suffers Tweaked Hamstring

Sunday, October 4, 4:35 PM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice (hamstring) was unable to return during Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Rice reportedly suffered a tweaked hamstring while trying to make a play during the first quarter, per Sam McDowell. He was originally listed as questionable, but was downgraded to doubtful and never returned to the game. The Chiefs also lost Tyquan Thornton (ankle) during this game. Fantasy managers should get an update on Rice during the week, but the team is on bye this upcoming week. That means Rice will get a whole week to rest and recover before the Chiefs take on the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 6.
