DeVonta Smith Has Six Grabs In Week 16

Sunday, December 22, 6:54 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith had six catches for 51 yards in Sunday's three-point loss to the Commanders. The 26-year-old had a touchdown in each of the previous two games heading into Week 16. Although he didn't find the end zone in this one, he still had a decent showing, especially with Kenny Pickett taking over for Jalen Hurts (concussion). With the Eagles losing their third game this season, the team will look to turn it around versus the Cowboys in Week 17. Regardless of who is under center, Smith remains a must-start.

Chris Olave Out For Week 16

Sunday, December 22, 3:19 AM

The New Orleans Saints have decided to keep wide receiver Chris Olave (concussion) on the sidelines for at least one more week. New Orleans opened his window for activation from injured reserve on Thursday but Olave has yet to complete his progress through the league's concussion protocol. He is listed as out on the team's official injury report ahead of their Week 16 game against the Green Bay Packers. Olave was placed on injured reserve after suffering his second concussion of the season in Week 9, which took place just three weeks after his previous concussion. It was the fourth such injury in the 24-year-old's three years as a pro. In comments to the media, interim head coach Darren Rizzi said of Olave's potential return, "If he can make it back for the end of the year, great. If he doesn't, he doesn't," indicating the team is in no rush to bring him back in 2024.
