This was the development we expected, but that doesn’t make it any less tough to reckon with. The New Orleans Saints are expected to place wide receiver Chris Olave on injured reserve Saturday, per multiple reports — NewOrleans.Football’s Nick Underhill first reported the news, which was confirmed by NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.

It’s a tough blow to a Saints receiving corps that’s already undermanned with the loss of Rashid Shaheed to season-ending knee surgery. There’s a possibility Olave’s year could be finished, too. He’s suffered two concussions this season and four in his NFL career...

It’s the Ultimate Hate Week for the state of Louisiana. The New Orleans Saints face the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. That’s always big for Saints fans, and moving from Dennis Allen to Darren Rizzi has reinvigorated the fan base.

The weekend ends in New Orleans, but it begins just an hour away in Baton Rouge. LSU takes on Alabama in Death Valley on Saturday night. Each event takes over the city individually, but when you pair both of them together it truly is a state wide affair.

It’s not the first time the biggest teams in the state have taken on their biggest rivals in the same weekend...

The New Orleans Saints and Atlanta Falcons face off for the second time this year, but the Saints will have a different head coach this time. Dennis Allen was dismissed this week, Darren Rizzi steps into his place for at least the remainder of the season. The first game of the Rizz era is against the hated rivals.
The rivalry’s all-time record is in favor of the Falcons, 56-55, due to this season’s earlier matchup. A muffed punt and perfectly deflected screen pass put 14 points on the board for Atlanta and were the deciding moments of the game.

Here are thee highlights from a few of the recent games in the rivalry:

There was some belief that Marshon Lattimore would magically be healthy after the New Orleans Saints traded him to the Washington Commanders. This did not happen. Lattimore will miss at least one more game due to injury.

From a fan perspective, watching Lattimore line up against Pittsburgh Steelers wideout George Pickens would have been a fun matchup. A collateral benefit of this is he’s given the opportunity to study the Commanders playbook for more than just a few days. Conspiracy would even say they’re using a preexisting injury to give him extra time.
