Hate to see this injury for @Saints WR Chris Olave after he missed Wk 7 game just 2 weeks ago with a #concussion.
THIS IS AWFUL: #Saints star WR Chris Olave is down on the field and is being stretchered off the field after taking a nasty hit to the head.

Olave has struggled with multiple concussions in the last couple years, this is really bad.

Best news of the day. 🙏
