New Orleans Saints Rookie Misses Second Straight Practice

The New Orleans Saints 2022 season hasn't gone the way anyone expected, with key injuries and struggles at the Quarterback position holding them back from competing for an NFC playoff spot, but one bright spot on the team has been rookie Chris Olave, who gives this team a very positive piece for the future.

Unfortunately, it looks like his availability for Week 16 is hanging in the balance, as he's missed the teams past two practices due to a hamstring injury, and with their playoff hopes all but over in 2022, there's a chance that we may not see him on the field again in 2022.

After being taken No. 11 overall in the 2022 NFL Draft, Olave has lived up to all expectations and more, with 60 catches for 867 yards and 3 Touchdowns, and despite the concerns at Quarterback and with Michael Thomas, this team have a key piece on their offence for the future, and now, they have to build around it.
