Much like the rest of the New Orleans Saints, wide receiver Chris Olave has had a year to forget. Olave had flashes of being his regular productive self when healthy, but multiple additional head injuries have kept him on the side line for over half the season.

Saints head coach Darren Rizzi finally shared that he returned to practice recently, the first major positive momentum since his last injury. That started to build speculation that he would play again this year, continuing into this matchup with the Las Vegas Raiders.

Chris Olave injury update

If he does come back this year...

The New Orleans Saints season has been marred by injuries throughout, including a significant one to their starting quarterback.

Derek Carr has been dealing with a left hand injury since the Saints’ Week 14 game against the New York Giants. It is not the first time he has missed games this season, literally adding insult to injury with New Orleans’ struggles.

The Saints will now face his former team, the Las Vegas Raiders, in Week 17.

Carr ended up missing practice all week and will indeed be absent from the matchup with his former squad. He was ruled out in the final New Orleans injury...

The New Orleans Saints enter the final two weeks of the 2024 NFL regular season in a tailspin and will look to capitalize on having at least one more winnable game.

Week 17’s matchup with the Las Vegas Raiders will also be the last home game of the season, so the Saints will be trying to send fans home happy one more time.

As hurt and as thin as the New Orleans roster is, the Raiders have been hit nearly as bad. Both teams are trying to put this campaign behind them. If anything, this should be a fairly close matchup and more competitive than most games have been this year for the two...

The New Orleans Saints have had one of their worst seasons in recent memory, but the fans dedication to the team has left an impression on at least one player.

In replying to a highlight video of the first two weeks of the season, the wins over the Dallas Cowboys and Carolina Panthers, Saints defensive tackle Khalen Saunders had some nice words for fans of the team.

Saunders was a signing in the 2023 NFL offseason when he inked a three-year, $14.5 million contract. He spent the first four years of his career with the Kansas City Chiefs, where he won a couple of Super Bowl rings, but it’s...

The Raiders were delayed several hours and did not depart Las Vegas until 7 p.m. PT for a 12 p.m. CT kickoff in New Orleans on Sunday.

The Las Vegas Raiders will be a bit delayed in arriving for their matchup with the New Orleans Saints ahead of Sunday’s game.

Upon their scheduled departure which was originally Saturday morning, there were mechanical issues discovered which prompt them to swap planes. Due to this, the team was set for takeoff at around 8:30 p.m. CT which would place their arrival time at about 11 p.m. or so.

Potentially a very long night for the Raiders.

Since this game is slotted in the early afternoon, players will likely not be getting much sleep ahead of their matchup which could ultimately have an...

The New Orleans Saints announced a slew of last-minute roster moves before Week 17’s game with the Las Vegas Raiders. Injuries and matchup concerns have pushed the team into bringing up some more players from the practice squad, not just for Sunday’s game but for the regular season finale next week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, too.

Here’s what you need to know, including the latest on big names like Chris Olave and Clyde Edwards-Helaire:

Derek Carr has officially been ruled out of the New Orleans Saints matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. Not being given the opportunity to get revenge on his former team was probably difficult for the quarterback.

Carr is still pushing to get back on the field. If you’re looking for optimism that he’ll achieve his goal, Carr was seen Friday without a brace on his hand.

Obviously, this development won’t allow him to play this Sunday, but it is a sign of progress. Darren Rizzi has maintained it’s all about functionality and not pain tolerance. Going from being in a brace to without a...
